GDP and consumption per person

In 2025, GDP per person in purchasing power standards ranged from 68% of the EU average in Bulgaria and Greece to 239% of the EU average in Luxembourg.

For actual individual consumption per person, the gap was narrower. It ranged from 73% of the EU average in Hungary and Latvia to 145% of the EU average in Luxembourg. The highest was 2.0 times the lowest.

Volume index per capita in purchasing power standards (PPS), EU = 100. It gives the volume of goods and services per person after removing price-level differences between countries. The default is gross domestic product (GDP), and the index also exists for actual individual consumption (AIC). The dataset also has the price level index (EU = 100).

Eurostat: “Thus, if the volume index of GDP per capita in one country is 110, while that of the EU Member States is set at 100, the volume of GDP per capita in that country is 10 percent higher than in the EU Member States as a whole.” (source)
