INDEC’s latest data highlights the sharp rise in the poverty and indigence thresholds, reflecting severe economic pressure on families. By defining these thresholds through food baskets and non-food expenses, the statistics reveal how inflation erodes purchasing power for basic survival. The methodology relies on Engel’s coefficient and household expenditure surveys to determine what families need to avoid poverty. This approach translates abstract economic trends into concrete monetary values required for subsistence, offering a clear view of social vulnerability. This information is crucial for open data because it provides the statistical backbone for analyzing social inequality. Transparent access to these indicators allows researchers and citizens to monitor poverty trends and evaluate the effectiveness of public policies aimed at reducing economic disparity.
