Per Capita Disposable Income for First Three Quarters Released Across 31 Provinces

Statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics website showed the per capita disposable income of residents in 31 provinces for the first three quarters of 2026.

Disposable income refers to the income that residents can freely dispose of, and is the sum of income available for final consumption expenditure and savings.

Disposable income includes both cash income and in-kind income. By source, it consists of four components: wage income, net operating income, net property income, and net transfer income.

Per capita disposable income is the average obtained by dividing residents' disposable income by the permanent resident population.

This indicator can be used to measure residents' living standards and purchasing power, and provides an important reference for formulating policies to safeguard and improve people's livelihoods.
