Source

This is a synthetic dataset called eusilcP from the simPop package. It is based on Austrian EU-SILC data from 2006 The original sample was provided by Statistics Austria.

Details

The data set is used as population data in some examples in the simFrame package. It is included for illustrative purposes only. Only a few of the large number of variables in the original survey are included, and some variables have been derived for convenience (e.g., hsize, eqsize, eqIncome, age). Sparse income components were omitted. Equivalized household income is computed from available components.
