Definition

Income inequality on a 0 to 100 scale, where 0 is perfect equality.

Covers Spain, the EU and its countries, and the United States. For other countries use gini_index_world_bank, which is measured on a different basis. US values measure household money income before taxes and are not directly comparable with the EU-SILC measure based on equivalised disposable income.
