How this figure is calculated
Population by income level divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Population by income level ÷ GDP (current US$)
Computed from
- Population by income level United Nations Population Division, national statistical offices, and Eurostat, via World Bank (2026) – processed by Our World in Data
- GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
