In 2025, Luxembourg was the country with the highest gross domestic product per capita in the world. Of the 20 listed countries, 13 are in Europe and five are in Asia, alongside the U.S. and Australia. There are no African or Latin American countries among the top 20. Correlation with high living standards While GDP is a useful indicator for measuring the size or strength of an economy, GDP per capita is much more reflective of living standards. For example, when compared to life expectancy or indices such as the Human Development Index or the World Happiness Report, there is a strong overlap - 14 of the 20 countries on this list are also ranked among the 20 happiest countries in 2024, and all 20 have "very high" HDIs. Misleading metrics? GDP per capita figures, however, can be misleading, and to paint a fuller picture of a country's living standards then one must look at multiple metrics. GDP per capita figures can be skewed by inequalities in wealth distribution, and in countries such as those in the Middle East, a relatively large share of the population lives in poverty while a smaller number live affluent lifestyles.

Definition: The distribution of income and wealth is represented by the distribution of total net wealth per capita and equivalised income by quintile. Total net wealth per capita is obtained by dividing the total net wealth of the household by the number of household members. Equivalised income is a weighted per capita income per household member determined by dividing the monthly net household income by the sum of the weights of persons living in the household. In order to form the quintiles, all persons are sorted according to the amount of their total net wealth per capita or their equivalised income and divided into five equal groups. The first quintile contains the 20 percent of those with the lowest net wealth per capita or equivalised income, while the fifth quintile contains those with the highest net wealth per capita or equivalised income.
