Greece GDP per Capita
GDP divided by midyear population NY.GDP.PCAP.CD
Greece's gdp per capita was $27,170 in 2025, ranked 49th globally. This represents a 10.3% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1960–2025.
Overview
Greece's gdp per capita stood at $27,170 in 2025, a rise of +$2,544 from 2024. The IMF projects $27,170 by 2025. Greece ranked 49th globally.
Greece’s GDP per capita has risen from a post‑war low of 513.09 in 1960 to 27,169.69 in 2025, placing the country 49th in the world and narrowly behind Croatia’s 26,957.85 and ahead of the Slovak Republic’s 28,524.48. The long‑term trajectory was punctuated by an all‑time peak of 31,695.83 in 2008, just before the sovereign debt crisis that erased several thousand dollars of per‑capita output in the following years. Over the 66‑year span, the average annual growth rate has been modest, reflecting periods of rapid expansion in the 1970s and 1980s, stagnation in the early 2000s, and a sharp contraction after 2008, before a gradual recovery in the 2010s. The recent figure of 27,169.69 suggests a return to pre‑crisis levels, yet the gap to the peak remains sizable. Continued structural reforms and higher productivity growth will be essential for Greece to close that gap and sustain upward momentum.
