About this data

Source: DWP, Pensioners' Incomes series: financial year 2024 to 2025

• Pensioner units are single people over State Pension age and couples where at least one is over it. Incomes are the average (mean) across all units, including those with no income from a source, and are not adjusted for household size.
• Adjusted for inflation with CPI, in 2024-25 prices.
• From 2021-22, DWP links survey data to benefit records, so figures before and after aren't directly comparable; benefit income in particular is higher from 2021-22.
