How to read this table

Indicators can be compared by settlement type to identify urban communities with higher concentrations of low-income residents. The rows provide data for cities of various sizes, including small and medium-sized settlements. Changes in percentage values over the specified period help track poverty structure relative to city size

What is visible in these numbers

Five highest values: Rural population — of working age (56.4), Urban population — living in rural areas (54.6), Urban population — total (48.8), Rural population — children in institutions (39.5), Pension age — employed in the economy (33.6). Gap between highest and lowest — 56.4 times. Top five account for 48.7% of the total sum across all items

Annual observations, 4 periods in the dataset. Of 100 possible values, 100 (100%) are filled; data gaps are virtually absent

The same indicator for other periods
