GDP per capita
Variable Definition
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita (purchasing power parity in constant 2011 international US Dollars). Subnational GDP estimates are based on an extensive econometric analysis by Genaioli and colleagues in 2013. GDP per capita (purchasing power parity in constant 2011 international USD) was estimated globally using complete data available at the smallest administrative unit possible. Within Latin American countries, this subnational level was generally the first-level administrative unit (departments/states/etc.) in addition to federal districts in Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, and Nicaragua. The exception is Costa Rica, which has one national GDP estimate and no estimates at the subnational level.
