🌐 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 Grenada does report.

What the data says about Grenada

Grenada 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.

Grenada sits in the middle third of GDP/cap (#96 of 214) as a UMC economy with LONG longevity.

Grenada holds 117.2K people and $1.4 billion GDP (198th) at $11,529 per person - mid GDP/cap band, UMC, LE 75.4 years (104th, LONG). 32 WDI/WHO/ILO cells fill the topic blocks.

Nearest ABS GDP/cap peer: St. Vincent and the Grenadines at $11,501 (Δ $28). Open that profile or the GDP/cap leaderboard before treating any single year as destiny.
