The Household Incomes Report provides information on the material wellbeing of New Zealanders as indicated by their household incomes from all sources from 1982 to 2014.
The report uses data from Statistics New Zealand’s 2013-14 Household Economic Survey (HES) to update the previous report in the series which had information to 2013.
The interviews for the 2013-14 survey were carried out in the year to 30 June 2014, and asked about incomes in the twelve months prior to interview.
There is also a companion Non-Income Measures report.
There is a shorter Background and Key Findings document which gives a quick overview of both reports, and also a Guidelines note to assist with using and interpreting the findings and figures in the reports.
The next update is planned for mid 2016 using data from the 2014-15 HES.
