This article presents a descriptive and quantitative analysis of the level of consumption of cultural nature goods and services of the Paraguayan population, which are classified into low, medium and high, determined by the set of goods and services to which it accesses and participates, characterizing them according to socioeconomic and demographic variables. The database corresponds to the cultural module introduced in the Permanent Household Survey of 2011, carried out by the General Directorate of Statistics, Surveys and Censuses of the Republic of Paraguay for once. The study results indicate that the Paraguayan population as a whole has a low cultural consumption, which are reflected in the sex, the age groups, the different categories of income, the years of studies and especially the place of residence. However, the results highlight the need for greater attention to aspects related to cultural policies, investment, promotion and prioritization of development programs towards these sectors.
