Bogdan Bogdanov
Abstract: The analytical report notes the 135th anniversary of the creation of the state statistics in Bulgaria and the 90th anniversary of the first household budgets survey in the country. That commemorates the works of statisticians, who held for the first time a unique sample survey on the budgets of 1385 households in March 1925. The highest proportion in the household’s survey has the serving official’s households - 1 243 households, followed by those of workers - 82 households and artisans - 60 households. The results of the survey were published in two books in 1928 by the General Directorate of Statistics. It is interesting to note that the publications reflected the individual budgets of the observed officials and employees, with numbers from 1 to 1243.
