Updated on DBnomics on April 16, 2025 (3:20 AM).
Income quintiles are assigned based on equivalized household disposable income, which takes into account differences in household size and composition using a method proposed by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The OECD-modified" equivalence scale assigns a value of 1 to the first adult
Age groups refer to the age group of the major income earner.
This refers to the main source of income for the household, that is, wages and salaries, self-employment income, net property income, current transfers received related to pension benefits, or other current transfers received from non-pension related sources.
Self-employment income refers to mixed income related to non-farm and farm businesses. Household rental income is not included.
Revenues from Current transfers received - pension benefits relate to current transfers received from corporations for employer's pension plans and current transfers received from government for the Canada and Québec pension plans (CPP/QPP) and the Old Age Security program including the Guaranteed Income Supplement (OAS/GIS).
