France GDP per capita, 1960 to 2024

Gross domestic product per person in France, in current U.S. dollars. · updated Jul 2026

About this statistic

France GDP per capita stood at $46,103 in 2024, up 3.1% on the previous period.

GDP per capita divides France's gross domestic product by midyear population, in current U.S. dollars from the World Bank. It is the quickest single gauge of average economic output per person, and the usual starting point for comparing prosperity across countries. The series runs from 1960, when France recorded $1307, to $46,103 in 2024, up from $44,700 the period before.

Per capita figures hide distribution: a rising average says nothing about who received the gains. They also move with exchange rates, so a currency swing can shift the dollar figure while local living standards barely change.

Frequently asked questions
How often does this update?
The World Bank publishes annual figures on its World Development Indicators release cycle. This statistic refreshes automatically when new years appear.
Is this the same as average income?
Not quite. GDP per capita measures output per person, not household income. Income measures subtract depreciation and net flows abroad, and they distribute differently across households.
Is this adjusted for prices between countries?
No. These are market exchange-rate dollars. For cost-of-living comparisons, purchasing power parity series are the right tool.
