Whereas, recreation/culture were only responsible for 11%, followed by transport, clothing and restaurant hotel with 9%, 5% and 4% respectively.
On the contrary, in the high income group, food and drink only occupied the same amount as transport, which was the third biggest amount of 16%. However, miscellaneous was the largest spend of household income with 23%, followed by recreation/culture with 21%. Although being surpassed by the rest in the low income group, Restaurant hotels took in charge of 12% in the high income group, which was greater than fuel bills and clothing with 7% and 6% respectively.
