GDP Per Capita

(2007)

Comparative Growth (2002)

Israel's GDP per capita in 2004 was $17,200. In 2004, Israel's GDP per capita increased by 2.4% after two years of negative growth. A growth rate that is considered high or sufficient in European countries (such as 2-3%), leads to negative growth rate or stagnation of the GDP per capita in Israel, because the population growth in Israel is much higher.
