The Incomes Report

The Household Incomes Report provides information on the material wellbeing of New Zealanders as indicated by their household incomes from all sources from 1982 to 2018.

The report uses data from Stats NZ’s 2017-18 Household Economic Survey (HES) to update the previous report in the series which had information to 2016-2017.

The interviews for the 2017-18 survey were carried out in the year to 30 June 2018, and asked about incomes in the twelve months prior to interview.
