Imagine that the whole world lived in the same street and where people lived was sorted by income. The poorest on the left and the richest on the right. All the others somewhere in between. Welcome to Dollar Street.
The website Dollar Street is created by the organization Gapminder. The idea is to show what standard of living people around the world have, the dependence on family income, and how this affects how they live, what they eat and what material goods they have such as toys, toothbrushes, furniture etc. The website gives a wonderful insight into what do we mean by having different living standards.
