Another way to understand a population’s standard of living is by taking the GDP and dividing it by the total number of people in the population. This figure offers insight into the average economic output per individual. When the GDP per person goes up, it suggests that individuals are becoming wealthier and/or resources are being used more efficiently. This helps economists understand whether economic growth is outpacing population growth.
