Income/Expenditure/Household Survey [hh/ies]
Household Income and Consumption Expenditure Survey (HICES) was conducted firstly to include the overall Turkey and it covered the information indicating the diversification of income and consumption with respect to the region, population, rural and urban areas. The early surveys covering whole Turkey were carried out in 1987 and 1994. Turkish Statistical Institution (TurkStat) has launched annual regular surveys since 2002.
The key objective of the household sample survey is to get reliable information which would allow to estimate living standards of the general population; to provide the government agencies of the Republic of Belarus and interested organizations with timely and reliable information reflecting the impact of economic reforms on various aspects of life; to establish the system of timely collection and processing of information with the use of computer facilities and advanced technologies.
The main component of the survey is one household questionnaire used to collect information in this survey: Consumption and Income, Turkey. A household is defined as a group of people sharing the same resources; they do not necessarily have to be related through blood or marriage. This household survey also contained questions with the purpose of gathering individual data in the household characteristics, employment, employment and income, education and health modules.

For 2015 Household Budget Survey, the non-response rate was 24.7% for overall Turkey.
Results of the household budget survey have been weighted and published by the most recent population projections. Until year 2009 aforesaid population projections was calculated based on the general population censuses.
In 2007 Address Based Population Registration System (ABPRS) was established. There are some differences in the distribution of population by age, sex and regions in ABPRS compared to the censuses. In this direction, the new population projections were produced using the most recent population data obtained from this new system. National and regional population projections were renewed. The weights based on new population projections have been used for the 2015 Household Budget Survey.
