Accounting for 40% of Guatemala's total GDP (USD27 billion out of USD68 billion in 2016), Guatemala City is the country's economic powerhouse. Over 2011-2016, the capital saw growth in its GDP, disposable income and labour productivity. However, the biggest metropolitan area in Central America of 3.8 million people, faces numerous economic and social challenges such as poverty, crime, illiteracy and one of the biggest wealth inequalities in the world.
