The aim of this work is to estimate monetary poverty indicators at provincial level in Italy taking into account the different price levels within the country. To account for the local price levels, we compute Spatial Price Indexes (SPIs) using retail scanner data on retail prices. The SPIs are used to adjust the poverty line when computing poverty indicators at provincial level that are estimated using Small Area Estimation (SAE) models.
