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 Copenhagen. 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 Copenhagen, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $48,036 for males and $26,917 for females.

These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in Copenhagen. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 56 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 44%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the village of Copenhagen.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Copenhagen, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $53,750, while females earned $47,841, resulting in a 11% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 89 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time positions. While this gap shows a trend where women are inching closer to wage parity with men, it also exhibits a noticeable income difference for women working full-time in the village of Copenhagen.

Interestingly, when analyzing income across all roles, including non-full-time employment, the gender pay gap percentage was higher for women compared to men. It appears that full-time employment presents a more favorable income scenario for women compared to other employment patterns in Copenhagen.
