National statistics on income inequality are published annually in the \u201cHouseholds Below Average Income\u201d publication using the Gini coefficient. The Gini coefficient is an international standard technical measure of how incomes are distributed across all individuals. It ranges from 0% (when everyone has identical incomes) to 100% (when all income goes to only one person).<\/p>

<\/p>

From 2009/10 to 2017/18 income inequality, measured using the before housing cost Gini coefficient, has fallen by 2 percentage points. See the table below for the annual statistics from 2009/10 to 2017/18.<\/p>

<\/p>

This data is published annually on the \u201cHouseholds Below Average Income\u201d website on gov.uk.<\/p>
