This data set is synthetically generated from real Austrian EU-SILC (European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions) data.
A data.frame
with 58 654 observations on the following 28
variables:
integer; the household ID.
factor; the federal state in which the household is
located (levels Burgenland
, Carinthia
, Lower Austria
,
Salzburg
, Styria
, Tyrol
, Upper Austria
,
Vienna
and Vorarlberg
).
integer; the number of persons in the household.
numeric; the equivalized household size according to the modified OECD scale.
numeric; a simplified version of the equivalized household income.
integer; the personal ID.
the household ID combined with the personal ID. The first five digits represent the household ID, the last two digits the personal ID (both with leading zeros).
integer; the person's age.
factor; the person's gender (levels male
and
female
).
factor; the person's economic status
(levels 1
= working full time, 2
= working part time, 3
= unemployed, 4

experience or in compulsory military or community service, 5
= in
retirement or early retirement or has given up business, 6
=
permanently disabled or/and unfit to work or other inactive person, 7
= fulfilling domestic tasks and care responsibilities).
factor; the person's citizenship (levels
AT
, EU
and Other
).
numeric; employee cash or near cash income (net).
numeric; cash benefits or losses from self-employment (net).
numeric; unemployment benefits (net).
numeric; old-age benefits (net).
numeric; survivor's benefits (net).
numeric; sickness benefits (net).
numeric; disability benefits (net).
numeric; education-related allowances (net).
numeric; income from rental of a property or land (net).

The data set is used as population data in some of the examples in package
simFrame
. Note that it is included for illustrative purposes only.
It consists of 25 000 households, hence it does not represent the true
population sizes of Austria and its regions.
Only a few of the large number of variables in the original survey are
included in this example data set. Some variable names are different from
the standardized names used by the statistical agencies, as the latter are
rather cryptic codes. Furthermore, the variables hsize
,
eqsize
, eqIncome
and age
are not included in the
standardized format of EU-SILC data, but have been derived from other
variables for convenience. Moreover, some very sparse income components
were not included in the the generation of this synthetic data set. Thus the
equivalized household income is computed from the available income
components.
