Poverty
2020: Italy recorded a record poverty rate for 15 years - 9.4% of the population
In mid-June 2021, it became known that the number of Italians living in absolute poverty rose sharply in 2020 and reached a record high in 15 years. The reason was the economic crisis associated with the pandemic, which caused serious damage to the country.
According to the national statistics bureau ISTAT, in 2020, about 5.6 million people, or 9.4% of the population, were below the poverty line. This group included people who could not buy the goods and services needed to achieve a "minimum acceptable standard of living." For comparison, in 2019, 4.6 million people lived below the poverty line, or 7.7% of the population. The Bureau of Statistics notes that the results were the worst for the entire data collection period, which began in 2005.
As for families, in 2020, more than two million households lived below the poverty line - 7.7% of the total. In the poorer south, 9.4% of families were in extreme poverty, and in the north this figure was 7.6%. For comparison, in 2019 the share of such families was 6.4%. At the same time, the number of Italians living in "relative poverty" - persons whose income is about half of the national average - fell to 13.5% in 2020 from 14.7% in 2019. ISTAT said the decline was due to a sharp drop in household spending across the board, impacting the calculations.
People living in absolute poverty include 1.3 million minors - 13.5% of all under-18s in Italy. In 2019, this figure was 11.4%. Foreigners were most affected: 29.3% of registered migrants were below the poverty line - about 1.5 million people - while among people with Italian citizenship this share was 7.5%.[1]
