How to read this ranking

The table uses each place's latest imported non-null World Bank observation. The reference year stays visible because the newest available observation is not always the same year for every country or territory.

Limitations

Population estimates are revised and may use different national census schedules. Values from different reference years should not be treated as a perfectly synchronized snapshot.

23 of the 238 mapped profiles currently have no imported value for this indicator. EqualAtlas leaves those profiles out of the ranking rather than treating missing data as zero.
