Title: THE LIVING STANDARDS OF RUSSIA’S POPULATION 
Abstract: Over the first 9 months of 2013, the real disposable money income of the population rose by 3.6% on the corresponding period of 2012. The highest rate of wage growth was observed in the budget-funded sector, as a result of the implementation of the RF President’s Edicts of 7 May 2012. The money income inequality index over the period of January–September 2013 somewhat increased. The poverty level indices for the first half-year of 2013 turned out to be higher than the corresponding indices for Q1 2012 due to alterations introduced in the subsistence level estimation methodology.
