Data state
Advance Guatemala keeps the data point as the source published it: it does not compare it with other sources or apply the tolerance bands it uses for the site's verified figures.

Dimensions

How the source classifies its series, with the most frequent values first.

  • Region

Notes

Surveys are few, so the Global Data Lab estimates the missing years by interpolation and extrapolation; that is why nearly all values are marked estimated or modelled. Log gross national income per capita was not included because its declared unit does not match the values.
