The annual growth of gross domestic product per person in constant prices. It differs from ordinary GDP growth by the rate of population growth, and in countries with fast-growing populations the difference runs to two or three percentage points a year — enough for brisk economic growth to mean stagnant income per person. It is this indicator, not GDP growth, that matches the everyday question of whether life has become better.
Important: It can be negative while GDP growth is positive — in that case the population is growing faster than the economy.
