Earnings Gaps Based on Gender and Education in Kentucky. Research Brief
Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education
Earnings comparisons between full-time male and female workers consistently show that women earn less over a lifetime than their male counterparts. In 2019, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that women made $.82 for every $1.00 earned by men. This research brief examines the disparities in median lifetime earnings of Kentuckians based on educational attainment and gender. It relies on data from the 2016-18 American Community Survey related to full-time workers, ages 25-64, with at least a high school diploma. It is the second of three research briefs on lifetime earnings in Kentucky. [For the first research brief in this series, see ED611815.]
