At-risk-of-poverty rate is defined as the share of persons aged 0+ with an equivalised disposable income below 60% of the national equivalised median income.

An equivalised median income is defined as the household's total disposable income divided by its "equivalent size". It takes into account the size and composition of the household, and is attributed to each household member (including children).
