Úroveň a mobilita příjmů českých domácností
Level of Income and Income Mobility of Czech Households

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with income of Czech households and their mutual differen¬ces in income among municipality types. The data in the appropriate classification were taken from the SILC sample of 2007 till 2010. Net annual monetary household income in CZK equalized by the number of consumer units as defined by the EUROSTAT was selected as the income measure. Regarding the income level, a significant difference was found between the capital city and other municipalities each year. Head count ratio oscillates around 6% and poverty gap ratio around 20%. The probability of escaping from the group with the lowest incomes grows from 42% in two year period to 80% in four year period. Permanent poor households consist mainly of unemployed and retired. These households are characterized by lower education and three quarters of their income depended on social income. Possibilities of increase of income were limited especially for households of retired people.
