🌐 Livability Score
One composite verdict from 5 of 5 World Bank series (life expectancy, under-5 mortality, electricity access, clean-water access, homicide rate), each benchmarked against every country tracking that series. A missing series never silently drags the score down: its weight redistributes across the series Fiji does report.
All indicators for Fiji
38 latest observations from World Bank WDI, WHO GHO, and ILO ILOSTAT (vintage through 2026-08-14). Values match the topic cards above; this table is the machine-readable export view analysts expect on a country profile.
🫀 Disease Burden
NCD deaths at 894 per 100,000 dominate Fiji's GHO year 2021; no communicable or injury cell is an outlier versus fleet midpoints, so the cause cards stay short. Summary metrics use 2021 data; cause-specific cards show their own observation year.

What the data says about Fiji
Fiji is classified as an upper-middle-income economy, a tier where statistical capacity, and therefore data completeness, varies more widely than in high-income countries, so a missing or older data point on this profile usually reflects reporting lag rather than an absence of the underlying activity. Output and income figures are reported at market exchange rates in current dollars, which means currency depreciation or appreciation can shift the headline numbers for a small economy like this one even when the real economy is barely moving. Because these economies are also the ones most likely to shift income tier within a decade, the trend over several years usually tells a more useful story than any single year's value.
Fiji sits in the middle third of GDP/cap (#125 of 214) as a UMC economy with MID longevity.
Fiji holds 928.8K people and $6 billion GDP (169th) at $6,426 per person - mid GDP/cap band, UMC, LE 67.5 years (173rd, MID). 38 WDI/WHO/ILO cells fill the topic blocks.
