In a survey conducted in Australia in 2021, over half of the respondents with an annual household income of between 20,001 and 40,000 Australian dollars indicated that they live paycheck to paycheck. Generally, households with higher annual incomes were less likely to live paycheck to paycheck, with the exception of households earning 20,000 Australian dollars or less, who were slightly less likely than those earning between 20,001 and 40,000 Australian dollars to live paycheck to paycheck.
