Households' economic well-being: the OECD dashboard
Economic growth (GDP) always gets a lot of attention but when trying to determine how well people are doing, it is also interesting to look at indicators that highlight the economic situation of households. Real household disposable income, net cash transfers to households, real household consumption expenditure, consumer confidence, households’ savings rate, households’ indebtedness, financial net worth, unemployment rate, and labour underutilisation rate are just a few of the indicators that can help provide a better picture of people's economic well-being.
The Dashboard of household statistics allows you to see how households are faring in OECD countries.
