Asian Wage/Income Gap Correlation Chart

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 549,374,424 people shows a slight positive correlation between the proportion of Asians and wage/income gap percentage in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.098 and weighted average of 26.9%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Asians within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.031% in wage/income gap percentage.
Asian Wage/Income Gap
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Asians and wage/income gap percentage does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Asians influences an upward or downward trend in the level of wage/income gap percentage within an area, or if Asians simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of wage/income gap percentage due to other factors.
