Users can find comparable and harmonized data for individual EU Member States and also the aggregated data for the European Union as a whole (EU-27), EU-15, EU-25, and euro area.

There are several ways to access the data. More general users can find the data they are looking for via the pre-defined tables. More demanding users and specialists can find more sophisticated data via detailed databases (Data), where users have to define/select the wanted variables/data (self-defined extractions). Researchers also have the possibility to access the microdata sets.
