Disminuye hasta el 26% el porcentaje de españoles en riesgo de pobreza o exclusión

The Spanish National Statistics Institute’s (INE) Survey on Living Conditions reveals that the at-risk-of-poverty-or-social-exclusion rate in Spain fell to 26% in 2022, marking the lowest level since 2013. This broad-based decline across all three components of the indicator—poverty, severe material deprivation, and low work intensity—suggests that the social objectives set for 2030 could be achieved eight years ahead of schedule, underscoring the effectiveness of government measures in addressing the economic crisis and inflation. However, the data highlight deep-seated structural inequalities that persist in society. Exclusion rates remain disproportionately high among vulnerable groups, such as non-EU foreign nationals, single-parent families with children, and the unemployed, while individuals aged 65 and over have experienced a slight increase in their risk of exclusion. Moreover, the educational divide and geographic disparities—evidenced by regions like Extremadura and Andalusia showing much higher rates than Navarre or the Basque Country—demonstrate that economic well-being remains strongly tied to an individual’s socioeconomic and territorial position. This article is crucial for the open-data ecosystem because it illustrates the value of long-term official statistical series for accountability and social impact analysis. By providing standardized and disaggregated indicators, it enables researchers, journalists, and citizens to verify the accuracy of political claims, promote government transparency, and conduct rigorous comparative studies on inequality trends and the effectiveness of public policies in Spain.
