ArmInfo.  In Armenia, 6% of respondents do not have money to buy food, another 16% can afford food, but not clothes, as evidenced by  data of a new poll conducted by the Research Center of the International Republican Institute (IRI).

According to the poll, another 52% noted that they can afford to buy  food and clothes, but inexpensive things. 20% noted that they can buy  a car, but cannot afford to buy an apartment or a summer house, and  only 4% of respondents said that they can afford to buy what they  want. Another 2% found it difficult to answer. Additionally, 96% of  respondents stated that they are citizens of Armenia, 2% - refugees  from Artsakh. 97% of respondents noted that they are not members of  any political party, 3% - stated that they are members.

The survey was conducted on behalf of the International Republican  Institute's Center for Insights in Survey Research by Breavis  (represented by IPSC LLC).  Data was collected from June 16-26, 2025  through CATI administered telephone interviews. The sample consisted  of n=1,505 resident citizens of Armenia and forcibly displaced former  residents of Nagorno Karabakh who are now residing in Armenia (who  may or may not be citizens). Residents who have lived in Armenia for  fewer than six months were excluded from the sample. It is  representative of the population with access to a mobile phone, which  excludes approximately 1.7% of adults. The achieved sample was  weighted for age, gender, regions, and urbanicity according to the  2023Yearbook of the Statistical Committee of Armenia and education;  the education weight target has been calculated to the midpoint  between the 2022 census data (for those aged 18+) and the achieved  sample's education level.  The response rate was 25%.  The margin of  error does not exceed +2.5% for the full sample.
