contents This merged dataset contains data on subjective household financial well-being, collected through nationwide representative surveys conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) among the adult population of Ukraine in the period from 1994 to 2024. Respondents' self-evaluation of their household's financial situation is based on the question: "Please tell me which of the statements most closely corresponds to the financial situation of your family?". Responses are given on a five-point scale: 1. We do not have enough money even for food. 2. We have enough money for food, but it is difficult to buy clothes. 3. We have enough money to buy food and can save some, but it is not enough to purchase items such as a refrigerator or TV. 4. We can buy some expensive items (e.g., a TV or refrigerator), but cannot afford everything we want. 5. We can afford to buy everything we want. This question has been regularly included in KIIS surveys since 1994 as part of a standardized demographic module. For most of the period, it was asked multiple times per year, enabling both cumulative annual estimates and analysis of within-year variation. The dataset combines data from 119 individual survey waves conducted over a 30-year period (1994–2024). All surveys used samples representative of Ukraine's adult population (18 years and older), with an average sample size of approximately 2,000 respondents per wave. The dataset enables analysis of changes in self-assessed household financial situation over time - both at the national level and across different population groups. In addition to self-assessed financial situation, the dataset includes key socio-demographic characteristics of respondents, such as gender, age, education, nationality, occupation, and place of residence (oblast and type of settlement). However, it is important to note that the surveys record only the respondent's socio-demographic characteristics, not those of all household members. Therefore, subgroup analyses should be interpreted accordingly. The data is available in an SAV format (Ukrainian, Russian, English) as well as a converted CSV format (with a codebook). The Data Documentation includes a short overview and discussion of survey results (with tables in Annex 1).
