The Lorenz Curve is a graph that displays variables by their distributed proportions, assumed by the bottom (y) % of their values. This is measured by the line of equality, the further the lorenz curve lies below the line of equality, the more unequal the distribution of the two variables are. In this example observing households with income, so the more the lorenz curve moves away from the line of equality, the more unequal the distribution of income is.
