This indicator represents the tracts ranked by their percentile level of median household incomes per census tract, per capita income. The data source is 2017-2021 American Community Survey, 5-year estimates. The percentile and the rank were calculated. A percentile is a score indicating the value below which a given percentage of observations in a group of observations fall. It indicates the relative position of a particular value within a dataset. For example, the 20th percentile is the value below which 20% of the observations may be found. The rank refers to a process of arranging percentiles in descending order, starting from the highest percentile and ending with the lowest percentile. Once the percentiles are ranked, a normalization step is performed to rescale the rank values between 0 and 10. A rank value of 10 represents the highest percentile, while a rank value of 0 corresponds to the lowest percentile in the dataset. The normalized rank provides a relative assessment of the position of each percentile within the distribution, making it simpler to understand the relative magnitude of differences between percentiles. Normalization between 0 and 10 ensures that the rank values are standardized and uniformly distributed within the specified range. This normalization allows for easier interpretation and comparison of the rank values, as they are now on a consistent scale.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents the mean household income for each of the five quintiles in Mexico, MO, as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau. The dataset highlights the variation in mean household income across quintiles, offering valuable insights into income distribution and inequality.

Key observations

• Income disparities: The mean income of the lowest quintile (20% of households with the lowest income) is 10,617, while the mean income for the highest quintile (20% of households with the highest income) is 160,507. This indicates that the top earners earn 15 times compared to the lowest earners.
• *Top 5%: * The mean household income for the wealthiest population (top 5%) is 284,944, which is 177.53% higher compared to the highest quintile, and 2683.85% higher compared to the lowest quintile.

Survey years

The Poverty and Inequality Platform: Percentiles database reports 100 points ranked according to the consumption or income distributions for country-year survey data available in the World Bank’s Poverty and Inequality Platform (PIP). There are, as of September 19, 2024, a total of 2,456 country-survey-year data points, which include 2,274 distributions based on microdata, binned data, or imputed/synthetic data, and 182 based on grouped data. For the grouped data, the percentiles are derived by fitting a parametric Lorenz distribution following Datt (1998). For ease of communication, all distributions are referred to as survey data henceforth, and the welfare variable is referred to as income.

Details

Each distribution reports 100 points per country per survey year ranked from the smallest (percentile 1) to the largest (percentile 100) income or consumption. For each income percentile, the database reports the following variables: the average daily per person income or consumption (avg_welfare); the income or consumption value for the upper threshold of the percentile (quantile); the share of the population in the percentile (which might deviate slightly from 1% due to coarseness in the raw data) (pop_share); and the share of income or consumption held by each percentile (welfare_share). In addition, the database reports the welfare measure (welfare_type) used in the survey data—income or consumption—and the region covered (reporting_level)—urban, rural, or national. The distributions are available in 2011 or 2017 PPP$.

This table reports US mortality rates by gender, age, year and household income percentile. Household incomes are measured two years prior to the mortality rate for mortality rates at ages 40-63, and at age 61 for mortality rates at ages 64-76. The “lag” variable indicates the number of years between measurement of income and mortality.

Observations with 1 or 2 deaths have been masked: all mortality rates that reflect only 1 or 2 deaths have been recoded to reflect 3 deaths

This table reports coefficients and standard errors from regressions of life expectancy estimates for men and women at age 40 for each quartile of the national income distribution on calendar year by commuting zone of residence. Only the slope coefficient, representing the average increase or decrease in life expectancy per year, is reported. Trend estimates for both race-adjusted and unadjusted life expectancies are reported. Estimates are reported for the 100 largest CZs (populations greater than 590,000) only.

The Distributional Financial Accounts (DFAs) provide a quarterly measure of the distribution of U.S. household wealth since 1989, based on a comprehensive integration of disaggregated household-level wealth data with official aggregate wealth measures. The data set contains the level and share of each balance sheet item on the Financial Accounts' household wealth table (Table B.101.h), for various sub-populations in the United States. In our core data set, aggregate household wealth is allocated to each of four percentile groups of wealth: the top 1 percent, the next 9 percent (i.e., 90th to 99th percentile), the next 40 percent (50th to 90th percentile), and the bottom half (below the 50th percentile). Additionally, the data set contains the level and share of aggregate household wealth by income, age, generation, education, and race. The quarterly frequency makes the data useful for studying the business cycle dynamics of wealth concentration--which are typically difficult to observe in lower-frequency data because peaks and troughs often fall between times of measurement. These data will be updated about 10 or 11 weeks after the end of each quarter, making them a timely measure of the distribution of wealth.

MEBs targeted for this funding were identified based on load effectiveness, which is a measure of the ability of management practices implemented in each area (basin) to have a positive effect on dissolved oxygen in the Chesapeake Bay. Unless otherwise approved, implementation activities are expected to occur within these areas.

This table presents income shares, thresholds, tax shares, and total counts of individual Canadian tax filers, with a focus on high income individuals (95% income threshold, 99% threshold, etc.). Income thresholds are based on national threshold values, regardless of selected geography; for example, the number of Nova Scotians in the top 1% will be calculated as the number of taxfiling Nova Scotians whose total income exceeded the 99% national income threshold. Different definitions of income are available in the table namely market, total, and after-tax income, both with and without capital gains.

This map is visualizing the changes in average household income (in 2023 dollars) for individuals at the county level, based on their parents" income level (see table below). Changes are defined by the mean household income earned by individuals born in 1978 and individuals born in 1992 (measured at age 27). Income is an important measure of economic mobility, which is the ability to improve economic status over time.

This dataset contains replication files for "Is the United States Still a Land of Opportunity? Recent Trends in Intergenerational Mobility" by Raj Chetty, Nathaniel Hendren, Patrick Kline, Emmanuel Saez, and Nicholas Turner. For more information, see https://opportunityinsights.org/paper/recentintergenerationalmobility/. A summary of the related publication follows. We present new evidence on trends in intergenerational mobility in the U.S. using administrative earnings records. We find that percentile rank-based measures of intergenerational mobility have remained extremely stable for the 1971-1993 birth cohorts. For children born between 1971 and 1986, we measure intergenerational mobility based on the correlation between parent and child income percentile ranks. For more recent cohorts, we measure mobility as the correlation between a child’s probability of attending college and her parents’ income rank. We also calculate transition probabilities, such as a child’s chances of reaching the top quintile of the income distribution starting from the bottom quintile. Based on all of these measures, we find that children entering the labor market today have the same chances of moving up in the income distribution (relative to their parents) as children born in the 1970s. However, because inequality has risen, the consequences of the “birth lottery” – the parents to whom a child is born – are larger today than in the past.
