In this study, we use a rich household longitudinal data set from Indonesia that spans 19 years, from 1996 to 2014, to examine the livelihood of informal workers. The data also allow us to differentiate between low-tier and high-tier informal and formal workers. Finally, the data span a period in which Indonesia grew from a low-income to a middle-income country.
