This is a list of countries or dependencies by [[Finance:Income inequality metrics|income inequality metrics]], including [[Finance:Gini coefficient|Gini coefficient]]s. The Gini coefficient is a number between 0 and 1, where 0 corresponds with perfect equality (where everyone has the same income) and 1 corresponds with perfect inequality (where one person has all the income{{mdash}}and everyone else has no income).

Income distribution can vary greatly from wealth distribution in a country (see [[Finance:List of countries by wealth inequality|List of countries by wealth inequality]]). Income from [[Finance:Black market|black market]] economic activity is not included and is the subject of current economic research.<ref name=Italy>[http://www.gler.it/gler_XV_1/Odoardi.pdf Underground economy and income inequality: two connected aspects in the oncoming context of Italian federalism] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120209211941/http://www.gler.it/gler_XV_1/Odoardi.pdf |date=2012-02-09 }}.

== UN, World Bank and CIA list – income ratios and Gini indices ==
:'''''Row numbers''' are static. Other columns are sortable. This allows ranking of any column.''

'''Key:'''
;R/P 10%: The ratio of the average income of the richest 10% to the poorest 10%.
;R/P 20%: The ratio of the average income of the richest 20% to the poorest 20%.
;Gini: Gini index, a quantified representation of a nation's [[Lorenz curve]]. A Gini index of 0% expresses perfect equality, while index of 100% expresses maximal inequality.
;UN: Data from the [[Organization:United Nations Development Programme|United Nations Development Programme]].
;CIA: Data from the Central Intelligence Agency's ''The World Factbook''.
