Before you use these figures
- A modelled estimate, not a direct county survey: CSO does not survey household income at county level directly -- these figures are modelled estimates, allocating national and regional income data to counties using administrative and survey sources, and can be revised in a later release as those underlying sources are updated.
- Latest figure: 2024 — 2 years old: This dataset is published annual and the publisher hasn't released anything newer. Nothing is missing from this page.
