EU Population Poverty Status Dataset

Population unable to keep home adequately warm by poverty status


This dataset provides information about the percentage of population in each EU Country that cannot afford basic indoor heating from 2003 to 2019. It is a good indicator of the percentage of population in the EU that is living close to or below the poverty line.

The dataset can be used to understand if the poor population in the EU has grown over the last 15 years and can be used to predict how the population will change in the years to come.

This data set is recommended for exploring data visualization techniques and implementing regression models for prediction tasks.
