Changes in the Age Profile of Urban Poverty in Bulgaria during the 1992–2008 Period

Summary/Abstract: The main goal of the current study is to present in details the urban poverty and income inequality in Bulgaria during the 1992-2008 period. On the one hand, the poverty and inequality levels in the capital and the big cities are studied. On the other hand, these figures are opposed to the poverty and inequality levels in the small towns. Based on a decomposition of the poverty indices, the age and profile of the persons living in poverty in the urban areas in Bulgaria is analyzed. The main data source for this analysis are unidentified individual data from the Bulgarian Household Budget Surveys (BHBS) for the years between 1992 and 2008.
