Analysis
Libya recorded 13,008 for use of interpolation and extrapolation on original gini coefficient data in 2017.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 21.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, use of interpolation and extrapolation on original gini coefficient data in Libya peaked at 29,157 in 2010 and was at its lowest, 341.16, in 1820.
That places Libya 72nd out of 160 countries with data for 2017, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
