All,

I'm trying to replicate some of the stats from this report. The author uses the values of "mean per capita" and "median per capita" household income (page 15)

I was looking through the CSO's website, an I was able to find mean and median household income, but no per capita versions.

Would anybody know how to calculate the per capita version, or where to find them on the CSO's website.

Divide by the population.

Population data available on CSO.

Look up the SILC, published by the CSO.

It contains estimates of equivalised mean and median household income.
