The Luxembourg Income Study (LIS, asbl - non profit organization) is a crossnational data archive located in Luxembourg. It covers data from 37 countries mostly from Europe but also outside as e.g. Japan, the United States, Mexico, Brazil.
The LIS archive contains two primary databases:
The LIS Database includes income microdata from a large number of countries at multiple points in time.
The LWS Database includes wealth microdata from a smaller selection of countries.
Both databases include labor market and demographic data as well. Registered users may access the microdata for social scientific research using a remote-access system. All visitors to the website may download the LIS Key Figures, which provide country-level poverty and inequality indicators.
