Disposable income refers to the income which is available for spending and saving, after taxes and social transfer. Equivalised income takes into account different household sizes and composition, for instance that one person in a four-person household has fewer costs than in a single-person household, because many expenses, such as heating or a fridge are shared. When individuals have less than 60% of their countries' median disposable income, they are at risk of poverty, as defined by the EU. Poverty can, however, be multi-dimensional and therefore not be captured by income only. The EU tries to account for this by suggesting two more indicators for poverty and social exclusion, which are material deprivation and low work intensity. These can also be found on 2030-Watch.
