You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The chart below shows the number of households in the US by their annual income in 2007, 2011 and 2015. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.
The bar chart illustrates data regarding the quantity of US
families
with five distinct annual salary scales in the years 2007, 2011, and 2015.
Overall
, it can be seen that the numbers of families
in the US with their income
being less than 25000 dollars
or over 75000 dollars
experienced an apparent upward tendency throughout the period, while
the quantity of US middle-wage households
remained relatively stable.
Looking at the diagram in more detail, in 2007, nearly 27 million
families
earned an annual income
ranging from 25000 dollars
to 49999 dollars
, which was approximately 2 million
more than that of households
with the lowest salaries. In the following four years, the number of the former went up by about 3 million
, while
the latter ascended by around 4 million
. In addition
, the two groups whose income
was more than 75000 dollars
witnessed a slight decrease, with the figure dropping to 14 million
and 28 million
respectively in 2011.
According to
the chart, the quantity of US families
with the lowest income
declined from 29 million
in 2011 to 28 million
in 2015. In contrast
, the households
with the second lowest annual income
, which ranked first in 2011, saw a decrement of about 1 million
. Furthermore
, the corresponding figure for families
with a range of 75000-99999 dollars
in wages rose to 15 million
, followed by 34 million
for the highest-wage households
. In terms of the middle family group, the number remained relatively stagnant, with it being 21 million
for 8 years.Submitted by nikolopup on
