Statistics agency ISTAT has drafted a
new socio-economic map of Italy in its annual report, dividing
the country into nine groups, not just on the basis of
profession, but also according to income, educational
qualifications and citizenship. The two most numerous groups are
office-worker families, with 4.6 households for a total of 12.2
people, who belong to the prosperous segment; and the families
of retired manual workers, 5.8 million households for over 10.5
million people, who are in the average income segment.
