The report includes findings on changes in inequalities between and within regions (Section 1), and what can be learnt about changes in income and the persistence of low income by examining data that follows the same people over time (Section 2). In another report, the Institute explores the intergenerational income persistence. The adult pay gap between those born into wealthier families and those from less well-off parents is widening. The average weekly income of a 42-year-old male in 2012 whose parents where in the top quintile of earners when they were 16 was around £1,300 in today's money, versus £680 for those whose parents where in the bottom quintile of earners, a gap of 88%. A 42-year-old in 2000 from a top quintile income background had an average income (again in today's money) of around £1,000 versus a bottom quintile income background of £720, a gap of 47%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fpublications\u002F9541\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fpublications\u002F9541\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fpublications\u002F9584\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fpublications\u002F9584\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The report on living standards and inequality: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fuploads\u002Fpublications\u002Fcomms\u002FR129%20-%20HBAI%20report%202017.pdf\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fuploads\u002Fpublications\u002Fcomms ... \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The report on intergenerational income gaps: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fuploads\u002Fpublications\u002Fwps\u002FWP201711.pdf\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fuploads\u002Fpublications\u002Fwps ... \u003C\u002Fa>  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Webpage with related publications: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fpublications\u002F9540\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ifs.org.uk\u002Fpublications\u002F9540\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
