AI-generated Abstract
The study examines changes in household incomes, poverty, and inequality in Ireland during the Celtic Tiger period, which can be divided into three distinct ages: youth (1987-1994), prime (1994-2001), and maturity (post-2001). Key findings reveal that while average incomes rose significantly during the prime Tiger years, the wealth distribution was uneven, with lower income deciles experiencing comparatively slower growth and higher inequality emerging particularly among female-headed households and different occupational groups.
