26.3% of the Hungarian population is at risk of poverty. This is a huge number, 2.54 Mio people. And no, contrary to what some people say, they are not all Rroma. There are “only” around 800’000 Rroma in Hungary and not all fall in that category.
This is a dismal number and it is one of the drivers of the xenophobism and anti-Rroma attitude in the country.
