Can Latin Americans survive on a minimum wage? Even if most countries in Latin America have instated laws to guarantee citizens a basic income, these minimum standards are often not enough to meet household needs. For instance, it was estimated that almost 25 million people in Mexico lacked basic housing services. Salary levels also vary greatly among Latin American economies. In 2020, the average net monthly salary in Mexico was barely higher than Chile's minimum wage in 2021. What can a minimum wage afford in Latin America?

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in American Fork. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

Key observations: Insights from 2023

Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In American Fork, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $54,439 for males and $27,701 for females.

These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in American Fork. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 51 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 49%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the city of American Fork.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In American Fork, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $71,091, while females earned $50,384, leading to a 29% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 71 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This analysis indicates a widening gender pay gap, showing a substantial income disparity where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same roles.

Surprisingly, the gender pay gap percentage was higher across all roles, including non-full-time employment, for women compared to men. This suggests that full-time employment offers a more equitable income scenario for women compared to other employment patterns in American Fork.
