About this ranking

Average annual spending per household on food and non-alcoholic beverages (ECOICOP group 01).

More on how it is measured
  • Consumption spending of private households resident in main dwellings, including non-monetary consumption such as the imputed rent of owner-occupied and rent-free dwellings, goods the household produces for itself and wages in kind, from the INE household budget survey (Encuesta de Presupuestos Familiares, EPF, base 2016, ECOICOP version 2 groups).

Spain only: the country, the 17 comunidades autónomas, Ceuta and Melilla, from 2016; region means region of residence. Current euros. A sample survey: values with a coefficient of variation of 25% or more (INE table 74004) are marked low_reliability, and cells INE keeps confidential are left out. Earlier years (base 2006) are not joined to this series.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the autonomous communities are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
