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 Sunnyvale, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $118,949 for males and $64,809 for females.

These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in Sunnyvale. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 54 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 46%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the city of Sunnyvale.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Sunnyvale, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $163,504, while females earned $121,335, leading to a 26% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 74 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 Sunnyvale.
