Varsovians almost as rich as the average European
21:58
Huge disparities persist between the wealth of Poles living in Warsaw and the wealth of Poles living in various other regions of Poland. The poorest people live in Szydłowiec – the purchasing power of the city’s average inhabitant is over three times smaller than the purchasing power of the average inhabitant of Warsaw (€13,150). The average Pole can afford to spend €7,589 annually, up from €7,228 and €6,710 in 2018 and 2017 respectively (the average European has €14,739 at his disposal).
In total, Europeans can spend nearly €10 trillion this year, about 3.5% more than last year. The richest (on average) people live in Liechtenstein, while the poorest people live in Moldova, Kosovo, and Ukraine.
