this did better than most resources put out by the American government. I just needed a definition for my essay but this really made it super clear, thank you Singapore for helping my essay

same haha, first time i really got it even tho its such a basic concept
I know realize why Singapore is known for their education. Great video!
This video was really well put together and easy to understand. The animations were very helpful. Thank you very much.
I got introduced to the Gini Coefficient from Prof Jordan Peterson where he discussed the correlation between crime and poverty. He says that poverty DOES NOT cause crime but RELATIVE POVERTY. Relative Poverty can be measured using the Gini Coefficient. The more unequal a society, the higher chance of crime occurring. Thus, as the Gini Coefficient approaches 1, the higher the possibility of crime occurring.

@@freshrockpapa-e7799 because the location of wealth is important. If you have the poor all placed on one spot and the rich very far away, you can bet crimes will be low. However, put a rich mansion in the middle of a poor area and see how many break ins will happen. That is why rich people tend to live in gated communities so as not get robbed. So how do you keep the owner of the rich mansion from getting robbed? Increase the surrounding wealth.
Very nicely explained. Thank you.
excellently demystified the concept of GINI Co efficient
Very good video and animation. Explain gini coefficient inn a clear and straight forward way.

Public tax money done right, thank you Singapore Dept. of Stats!
Gini Coefficient in 2020 in Singapore was about 0.35. USA same year was 0.45. I'm moving.

I am studying singapore for a project and got here.... And im here to tell you that like astrobum said, A higher number is better. Unless ofc your from the USA and are thinking about moving to singapore in which case good fuckin luck lmao the housing market is insane so unless your already a citizen and can get subsidized you might be screwed.

0.45 was Singapore 2020 and 0.48 in the US. So its about the same actually and the point that @milo made is very valid, in more equal places the benefits are often reserved for citizens or other members of certain entities (in-group)

Ask the Singapore Dept. of Statistics why its measure of GINI coefficient is not included in the World Bank compilation of the statistic.

Hi, very nicely explained but what do you mean by every household has same income, it should be a horizontal line instead of 45 degree.
Just wondering, how are the gini coefficients in socialist countries? Soviet Union for example.
