Among Sweden’s population in 2018, nearly 15 percent were at risk of poverty. Two thirds of those persons, nearly 10 percent of the population, were at persistent risk of poverty. This means that they were at risk of poverty in 2018 and during at least two of the three preceding years. The percentage of persons at persistent risk of poverty has remained stable in recent years.
