Based on that approach and considering data for the Portuguese economy, we estimate a multinomial model in order to identify the main determinants of the probability of a household being poor, middle class, or rich using a set of characteristics of the households and the household’s individual of reference as explanatory variables. The evidence obtained indicates that: (i) the determinants of poverty and richness are similar in qualitative terms; (ii) household type, main source of income, education, and labor market state are the most important factors explaining these phenomena.
