  • See how debt, revenue and expenditure evolve in real time.
  • Use the hover texts for a quick explanation of each metric.
  • Click through to our methodology for detailed formulas.

Data sources & further reading

All figures are derived from official Eurostat open data (for example GOV_10DD_EDPT1, GOV_10A_EXP, GOV_10A_MAIN, DEMO_PJAN and related population and migration datasets). Where necessary, we use simple interpolation to estimate intra-year values.

For a full overview of datasets, assumptions and calculation steps, see our Methodology & data sources. A compact list of all underlying Eurostat tables is available on the Source overview page.

Background on the project and its goals can be found on the About this project page, and common questions are answered in the FAQ.
