The bar chart compares the yearly earnings of US
families
for the years 2007, 2011, and 2015. The currency unit was USD.
Overall
, the maximum
number
of
families
earned 1
million
dollars
or more (which is the highest figure) in all these time periods
whereas
the least
number
of households received half or 25000
dollars
less than the highest income. It is clear from the picture that, in 2007, just under 30
million
houses pocketed 100,000 or more
dollars
. Though the
number
of
families
decreased by approximately 3
million
in 2011, the brood
number
soared again in 2015 and picked at slightly below 35
million
.
However
, more interestingly, the
number
of earners remained almost identical earning 75k USD to 99k USD in these three years when the
number
was around 15m.
On the other hand
, the second highest proportion of
families
(a little above 25m) was rewarded by 25000 to 49999 thousand
dollars
while
the
number
remained almost the same for 50k to 75k yearly benefits.
