What counts as household income? In this episode of The Economy – How Do You Measure That?, Jim Tebrake and Jorrit Zwijnenburg explore what is included in household income in the national accounts — from wages and pensions to dividends and government transfers. They also discuss why headline totals alone may not tell the full story about how households are actually doing, and why distribution matters when understanding economic well-being.
