How much does an average person make a year?

Answer 1

That depends on who you include in the statistics. The answer you are looking for is probably $32,000. According to the US Census Bureau in 2005, there are several median income figures ranging from $28,000 to $39,000. The median income for all 145 million Americans in the labor force with earnings was $29,000. The median income for all those in the labor force, with earnings who were 25 years of age or older was $32,000. The median income for those who were older than 25 years of age and worked full-time was $39,000.
