What does «estratificación socioeconómica» mean in Spanish?
- A form of social stratification based on the remuneration received or taxes paid by individuals, or based on the properties or areas where they reside. In some countries, the classification by strata that a person obtains determines the taxes he/she must pay, the rates for public utilities, access to health services, tuition fees at state universities, among other concepts. This classification can also be applied to real estate or to regions/neighborhoods, especially in terms of public services.
