Median equivalised disposable income (annual, EUR)

Annual median equivalised disposable income in euro, for EU member states, EFTA countries, EU candidate countries and EU/euro-area aggregates. Eurostat dataset ilc_di03 ('Mean and median income by age and sex'), filtered to statinfo=MED_EI ('Median equivalised income'), age=TOTAL, sex=T, unit=EUR (euro). Each row is one (year, country): the median equivalised disposable income - half the population lives in households with more, half with less. Method: Eurostat compiles EU-SILC microdata transmitted by the member states; income is equivalised disposable income (modified OECD equivalence scale: 1.0 for the first adult, 0.5 for each additional person aged 14+, 0.3 for each child under 14). Non-EU/EFTA/candidate countries are dropped (same licensing rule as the other Eurostat datasets). Units: euro (EUR), nominal. Caveats: nominal euro values mix real income growth with inflation and exchange-rate effects (non-euro countries); national EU-SILC redesigns create series breaks for some countries; DE publishes a back-cast 1995 cell with a 2003-2004 gap before the EU-SILC era. Coverage: 1995 to the present, annual. Provenance: Eurostat keyless JSON-stat API, free reuse with attribution (Commission Decision 2011/833/EU) - please cite Eurostat. Primary key: (year, country_code). Join keys: country_code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3), year. Cadence: refreshed yearly; Eurostat updates EU-SILC indicators in autumn. Sample use: join with 'eurostat-income-quintile-share-ratio-annual' to separate income levels from income inequality.
