Statistically who is the average man and woman in the Portugal in 2024

Ever wondered where you stand out or fall behind. Are you average, beyond average or below. In Portugal you might be surprised to hear the averages across the board. So many people wish for a million euros, a boyfriend who is 6 feet tall and makes tons of money but the thing is, these are rare.

Only 0.54% of households in Portugal have a net worth of a million euros or more. Which is quite a bit less than counterparts in the U.K. and France which have 6% of households have a million euros or more. While Germany and Spain are closer with 2.3% and 1% respectively of households have a million euros or more.

Quick note on average vs median. Median is the number in the middle. It is less sensitive to outliers and extreme values and so makes for a better example for finding the average in these situations. For example, when it comes to net worth, the average can be skewed by the fact that someone can be a billionaire. Rising the level to extreme values that are not a good guide for the group.
