The method of data collection is in part based on the EU-SILC, annually conducted by the Hellenic Statistical Authority. However, there are specific questions concerning the living conditions at local level as well as questions about how households deal with the crisis. We are going mainly to analyze and discuss questions relating to the municipality of Athens focusing on the phenomenon of poverty with a descriptive and comparative perspective using data from the sample survey, which was conducted at the second half of 2012 (800 questionnaires). The research questions are: what are the extent and the depth of poverty in Athens municipality? What are the risk groups? Who are those mostly affected by the crisis? Are there any differences with the pattern of the total population in Greece? The analysis -mainly descriptive- is based on simple relative poverty and material deprivation indices aimed to reflect the size, the intensity and the extent of the phenomenon. It is especially highlighted that the risk of poverty in Athens is high (20.1%) and slightly lower than that of the whole country (year 2011: 21.4%). It is also indicated that among high-risk groups are the unemployed, people with low educational level and the elderly.
