Resident Households by Monthly Household Income and Main Source of Household Income (Household Expenditure Survey 2017/18)
Description
Household Expenditure Survey 2017/18 table showing the percentage distribution of Singapore resident households by monthly household income and the main source of that income. Columns give a total plus employment income, business income, and other income, while rows set out monthly income bands. Because the figures are percentages rather than counts, the table reads as a profile of how households at each income level primarily support themselves — wages, self-employment and business earnings, or other sources. Social policy researchers use it to study reliance on non-wage income across the income distribution. Adapted from SingStat TableBuilder CT/16507.
