Income poverty is commonly encountered in developing and developed countries, but in the latter case the incidence rate is lower. Beyond income, the health dimension is recalling the attention of a wide number of studies about poverty. With the aim of more richer description of poverty in Europe, we adopt a multimensional approach, considering as measure of well-being not only income but also health. Using the Receiver Operating Characteristics curve ROC approach, we will examine the the correlation between income and health, to understand if a multidimensional approach is really useful to describe better the phenomenon and we will compute some indexes of multidimensional poverty.
