Quintile boundaries
A useful approach for exploring the distribution of household income is to divide households in Jersey into five equal sized groups (‘quintiles’) according to their income level – the first quintile being the 20% of households with the lowest incomes, the second quintile being the next 20% of households and so on, up to the fifth, or top, quintile being the 20% of households with the highest incomes.
These are the upper boundaries for quintiles 1 through 4 for equivalised household income; quintile 5 includes all households with an equivalised income above the upper boundary for quintile 4. Amounts are annual and in GBP. Amounts are nominal, i.e. not adjusted for inflation.
These statistics were produced from the results of Living Costs and Household Income Surveys.
