Average income population and persons with 52 weeks income, 2004

Since 1946, Statistics Netherlands has regularly conducted research into the regional distribution of income. These studies are mainly based on registers from the Ministry of Finance (the tax registers) and the Dutch municipalities (the population registers = GBA). The final RIO results are based on a sample of 1.9 million households. Income distributions of persons and households, per country, province, corop area, metropolitan agglomeration, urban region and municipality. Data available from: 2004 The figures from the Regional Income Survey (RIO) 2004 are provisional figures. Frequency: one-off Because the municipal classification changes every year, the results from the RIO are published for each separate research year; merging or splitting municipalities means that all information related to income in a newly formed or split municipality can change considerably, so that comparability over time is not possible.
