| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | US$16,711 | 2025 |
| Five years earlier | US$14,664 | 2020 |
| Ten years earlier | US$12,783 | 2015 |
| Highest | US$16,711 | 2025 |
| Lowest | US$2,084 | 1960 |
| Average since 2016 | US$15,327 | 2016–2025 |
| First recorded | US$2,084 | 1960 |
Over five years it is up 13.96% from US$14,664 in 2020 (2.65% a year on average, compounded). Since 1960 it is up 701.97% from US$2,084 in 1960 (3.25% a year on average, compounded).
In 2025, Hungary's GDP per capita (constant 2015 US$) rose US$167.86 on 2024 (from US$16,543 to US$16,711).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +US$298.74 and a typical year strayed about US$383.86 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.3 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was US$1,124 in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was US$1,028 in 1991. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about US$398 a year. A straight line explains 91% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2025, Hungary had the 56th highest value of the 186 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.

Gross domestic product is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period. It can be measured in three different ways: using either the expenditure approach, the income approach, or the production approach. The core indicator has been divided by the general population to achieve a per capita estimate.This indicator is expressed in constant prices, meaning the series has been adjusted to account for price changes over time. The reference year for this adjustment is 2015. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
