The "Relative poverty rates: Entire population" a measure of relative poverty, refers to the proportion of individuals in a country whose income falls below the poverty line relative to the imcome of the entire population in a country.

Coding rules

The "poverty rate," a dimension of relative poverty, pertains to the prevalence of poverty, specifically the number of individuals in a country who live below the poverty line. This indicator is measured as a ratio of the population. Poverty lines are determined based on the overall population and are subsequently used to calculate poverty rates for specific subgroups (such as children and the elderly). While the poverty lines stay consistent within a given dataset, the subgroups can vary when calculating poverty rates. The poverty line is defined as half of the median household income of the entire population. The affected population is categorized into broad age groups: child poverty (ages 0-17), working-age poverty (ages 18-65), and elderly poverty (ages 66 and older). It's important to note that countries with similar poverty rates may have differences in the relative income levels of those living in poverty. Teorell et al. (2024:354) define the variable as "Ratio of the number of people whose income falls below the poverty line, taken as half the median household income of the total population."
