Source: IWPR analysis of 2024 1-Year American Community Survey microdata as made available on IPUMS (Integrated Public Use Microdata) by Steven Ruggles, Sarah Flood, Matthew Sobek, Daniel Backman, Grace Cooper, Julia A. Rivera Drew, Stephanie Richards, Renae Rodgers, Jonathan Schroeder, and Kari C.W. Williams. IPUMS USA: Version 16.0 [1-Year ACS 2024]. Minneapolis, MN: IPUMS, 2025. https://doi.org/10.18128/D010.V16.0. The wage gap is computed using Equal Pay Today methodology, as the ratio of median annual earnings of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander women to the median annual earnings of White non-Hispanic men, aged 16 and above, for workers with positive earnings, including full-time, part-time, and part-year workers.
Notes: The wage gaps are disaggregated for women of different ethnicities within the AANHPI communities.
*The underlying sample for Fijian, Malaysian, and Mongolian women is too small to be representative of the population, and the wage gap should be interpreted with caution.
