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 line graph displays the data of five groups of households with different
income
levels in the years 2007, 2011 and 2015.
It can be observed that the overall
structure of the income
levels did not change much. The number of houses
which earned more than 100,000 dollars increased to a relatively large extent in 2015 than in the other two years.
The figures for middle-class houses
, namely the two groups with an annual income
of $50,000 to $74,999 and $75,000 to $99,999 are the most stable ones with minor fluctuations. The former group
consisted of slightly more than 20 million
houses
while
there were around 15 million
houses
in the latter group
.
The number of houses
in the least-income
category rose by 3 million
from 2007 to 2011 and then
almost remained the same in 2015. The same pattern also
occurred in the second last
group
. At last
, the group
on the highest income
level saw a drop of roughly 2 million
houses
from 30 million
houses
but soared to 34 million
houses
in 2015.Submitted by micilan on
