Data are compiled from official government sources or are computed by World Bank staff using national (i.e. country–specific) poverty lines.;;This series only includes estimates that to the best of our knowledge are reasonably comparable over time for a country.

This means that when the national median is sufficiently low, the Societal Poverty line is equivalent to the extreme poverty line, $2.15.
