The 1% of the state’s population with the highest household income had an average income equivalent to 32.4 times the income of the 40% of the population with the lowest income. In 2023, despite the increase in average household income per capita in all strata, inequality is very high in the state.

Acre is the state of the federation with the lowest percentage of people with income (51.5%)
The share of people with income in the Brazilian population increased from 62.6% in 2022 to 64.9% in 2023, and reached a new record in the historical series, started in 2012. However, when analyzed by federation units, it also presents the traditional profile of indicators: higher levels of population with income in States of the South and Southeast and lower levels in the North and Northeast. Rio Grande do Sul is the State with the largest share, 70.3%, followed by Santa Catarina (69.4%), São Paulo (68.6%) and Minas Gerais (67.7%). At the other end are Acre (51.5%), Amazonas (53%), Roraima (54.8%) and Maranhão (56%).
For IBGE, the improvement in the job market, with an increase in employment and the expansion of Bolsa Família are the factors that may explain the expansion in income last year.
