A Lorenz curve is a graphical representation of the cumulative distribution function of a probability distribution. The line of equality displays the values of x and y being equal of a 1 to 1 ratio. The Lorenz curve shows the actual distribution. This one shows the cumulative % of households related to the cumulative % of income.
