According to the Office for National Statistics figures released yesterday -
http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/regional-accounts/regional-household-income/spring-2014/stb-regional-gdhi-2012.html -
- GDHI (Gross Household Disposable Income) per head estimates give
values for each person, not each household*
- In 2012 London had the highest GDHI per head, where the average
person had £21,446 available to save or spend. Northern Ireland had the
lowest, with the average person only having £13,902 (see Table 1).
- Of the 37 NUTS2 sub-regions, in 2012 Inner London had the highest
GDHI per head, where the average person had £24,940 available to save or
spend. The West Midlands sub-region had the lowest, with the average
person only having £13,300 (see Table 2).
- Of the 139 NUTS3 local areas, in 2012 Inner London - West had the
highest GDHI per head, where the average person had £36,963 available to
save or spend. Nottingham had the lowest, with the average person only
having £11,411 (see Table 3).
- Between 2011 and 2012, GDHI per head of population increased in all
NUTS1 regions. The North East had the strongest growth at 4.0%, followed
by Wales at 3.8%. Northern Ireland had the weakest growth at 2.7%
