Cyprus Poverty or Social Exclusion Rate, 2023–2025

Cyprus — People at risk of poverty or social exclusion; percent of EU-SILC private-household population, survey years 2023–2025; selected checkpoints shown.

What the Data Shows

Cyprus’s at-risk-of-poverty-or-social-exclusion rate was 17.4% in 2023. It fell to 17.1% in 2024 and remained at 17.1% in the 2025 survey. CYSTAT estimated that about 167,000 people were in the combined risk group in 2025. The 2025 survey uses 2024 as the income reference year, so the survey and income periods should not be conflated.
