The level of ecomomic (income or Expenditure) inequality in Khorasan province has been unknown. This paper tries to estimate and compare the trends of expenditure (income) inequality in Khorasan province and the whole Iran during 1971-2001 in two categories of urban and rural regions.
For this purpose, inequality indices (Gini coefficient and income deciles) were estimated parametrically. The results of income distribution trend (Gini coefficient) and test of hypotheses indicate that there has been no statistically significant difference between economic inequality levels of urban and rural areas in Khorasan province and between these areas and the whole country.
