The number of millionaires in the Netherlands has risen for the fifth year in a row, national statistics office CBS said on Wednesday, based on figures from 2018.
That year there were 207,000 households in the Netherlands worth more than €1m – or 2.7% of the total. The figure includes property values and takes mortgage debts into account.
The average millionaire’s household in 2018 had assets of €2.5m, compared with €119,000 among non-millionaires. Some 4,500 households had assets of more than €10m, the CBS said.
Noord-Holland province is home to most millionaires in relative terms and includes the three local authority areas with most millionaire households – Bloemendaal (22%), Laren (20% and Blaricum (17%). Limburg is bottom of the list with the fewest millionaires.
