General warnings
We encourage you to check the documentation by country very carefully as cross-country results might not be fully comparable as:
 
  • some datasets have information on head and spouse only
  • some datasets have information on a limited amount of persons
  • some datasets have no information on children
  • some datasets have been revised (major revisions are announced, minor revisions are not - all revisions are listed in the revision notes list)
  • all income amounts are in national currencies
  • some datasets have net income variables only (net of taxes and contributions)
  • some datasets have income in hundreds or thousands of national currency units
  • the contents of the weights can differ from dataset to dataset
