answer text <p>The Households Below Average Income survey (HBAI) produces information on the income distribution and income inequality which can be found here. This publication shows income inequality has fallen between 2009/10 and 2015/16.</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/households-below-average-income-199495-to-201516" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/households-below-average-income-199495-to-201516</a></p><p> </p><p>Table 2.1ts of this publication sets out median incomes over time for each decile of the population, ordered from the 10% of individuals with the lowest equivalised household incomes (decile 1), to the 10% of individuals with the highest incomes (decile 10). This shows between 2009/10 and 2015/16 on a Before Housing Cost (BHC) basis, the median income of decile 1 increased by 4%, whereas the median income of decile 10 decreased by 3%. The patterns were similar on an After Housing Cost (AHC) basis, whereby decile 1 increased by 2% and decile 10 decreased by 3%.</p><p> </p><p>The publication also has measures for income inequality. One of these is the Gini-coefficient, which is an international standard technical measure, showing 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). Income inequality according to this measure has fallen between 2009/10 and 2015/16 from 36% to 35% on a BHC basis, and from 40% to 39% on an AHC basis.</p><p> </p><p>Another measure of income inequality is the 90/10 ratio; this compares the incomes of the 90<sup>th</sup> percentile to the 10<sup>th</sup> percentile. The higher the number, the greater the gap between those with the highest incomes and those with the lowest incomes. This measure has fallen between 2009/10 and 2015/16 from 4.1 to 3.9 on a BHC basis, and from 5.4 to 5.2 on an AHC basis.</p><p> </p>
