Summary
NT$1.21 million marked Taiwan's average household disposable income in 2025, up 3.9% from a year earlier and the highest on record, DGBAS said.
NT$920,000 in average household consumption expenditure and NT$290,000 in savings show the gain translated into both spending and saving, with consumption up 3.6% and savings up 4.9%.
Hsinchu City led all municipalities at NT$1.604 million, followed by Hsinchu County at NT$1.569 million and Taipei at NT$1.554 million.
Hsinchu's lead reflects its concentration of high-tech firms in the Hsinchu Science Park and AI industry growth, while Taipei benefits from its role as Taiwan's political and financial center.
Among the six major municipalities, Taipei, New Taipei, Taoyuan and Taichung topped the national average, while Tainan at NT$1.044 million and Kaohsiung at NT$1.206 million trailed it.
