As much as 54 percent of Poles declare that they can afford to cover the cost of living, but have to save to make major purchases, according to a survey by CBOS.
Additionally, 23 percent of the respondents claimed that their standard of living is above average, which is an increase of 4 percentage points year-on-year, while the same number of people think that their standard of living is below average, a drop of 3 percent y/y.
According to CBOS, the level of education is the main differentiating factor. Only five percent of university graduates said that their family lives in poverty. Apart from that, older people and those from the northern part of the country tend to struggle with money.
