While investors have historically looked towards the FTSE 100 index for high dividend yields, there might be reasons to think that, in 2025, certain FTSE 250 dividend stocks are worth considering.

The FTSE 250 index comprises the UK stock market’s 101st to 350th largest companies - also known as medium-sized or mid-cap companies. While they are not big enough to be part of the FTSE 100, they are still some of the UK’s largest publicly-traded enterprises and often feature as the top stocks to buy.
