List of American countries by monthly average wage

This is the map and list of American countries by monthly net (after taxes) average wage. The chart below reflects the average (mean) wage as reported by various data providers. The salary distribution is right-skewed, therefore more than 50% of people earn less than the average net salary. These figures have been shrunk after the application of the income tax. In certain countries, actual incomes may exceed those listed in the table due to the existence of grey economies. In some countries, social security, contributions for pensions, public schools, and health are included in these taxes.

The countries in purple on the map have net average salary in excess of $2,000 and in blue –in the range of $1,000 to $1,999, in green - in the range of $600 to $999, in yellow - in the range of $300 to $599, and in red below $300.
