Poverty rate remained stable at around 8% in 2023

31.03.2025 - In 2023, 8.1% of the population or some 708 000 people in Switzerland were affected by income poverty. 6.3% of the population had been in arrears with at least two types of payment in the last 12 months and 5.5% had to go without important goods, services and social activities for financial reasons. The overall standard of living in Switzerland, however, continues to be one of the highest in Europe. These are some of the findings from the 2023 Survey on Income and Living Conditions (SILC) conducted by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO).
