Notes

1. Estimates are in terms of pound (£) per week and are presented in 2013/14 prices, based on adjustments in line with RPI. All figures have been rounded to the nearest pound (£).

2. Working households are those in which at least one adult is in work.

3. All estimates are based on survey data and are therefore subject to a degree of uncertainty. Small differences should be treated with caution as these will be affected by sampling error and variability in non-response.
