How to Read This Country Page

Three boundaries keep wage and price comparisons from being misread.

Wage basis
The annual wage is expressed in USD PPP at constant 2025 prices. It is an average, not a median wage, local-currency amount, or take-home figure.
Years stay separate
The latest wage year and the price year do not have to match. Price controls read only 2022, 2023, or 2024 and never substitute another year.
Price benchmark
100 represents the United States price level. A value of 120 is reported here as 20 index points above that benchmark.

Data Coverage and Limits

See which years are actually present before comparing wage and price records.

Wage observations span thirty years from 1995 through 2025, comprising thirty-one distinct records. This longitudinal coverage supports analysis of long-term earnings trajectories in constant prices.

Price data availability is currently restricted to the 2024 reference year alone. Earlier periods lack sufficient records to establish continuous consumer price trend lines.

The dataset includes complete category breakdowns only where values are explicitly reported. Missing entries are treated as unavailable rather than estimated or carried forward from adjacent years.
