Population shown in these results
Applies to charts and tableEveryone included in this metric, with no demographic filters
Who is included?
Full-time, year-round civilian noninstitutionalized workers age 16–64 with valid adjusted earnings, including zero and net losses.
Grouped by Educational attainment. Each group uses the same population filters.
What this selection shows
2024 · No demographic filters
14 of 14 estimates loaded so far are available. The displayed mean earnings by educational attainment estimates range from $49,925 to $180,094 for the loaded results. A difference between estimates does not by itself show a statistically significant difference. Check the paired difference confidence interval and reliability labels when available; separate population margins of error do not test that difference.

What do the availability labels mean?
- Absent coverage
- This combination is not included in the release. No estimate or reliability assessment is available.
- Ineligible selection
- The selected group falls outside the measure’s population universe or valid category combinations. A broader release cannot make that statistic eligible.
- Undefined or missing input
- A zero denominator makes a statistic undefined. Missing required information prevents calculation. These are distinct from withholding an otherwise defined estimate under reliability rules.
- Suppressed
- A result exists, but its estimate and uncertainty are withheld under the release’s reliability rules. This is not a zero.
- Unstable
- The estimate is shown with uncertainty, but its relative standard error exceeds the release’s threshold. Use caution.
- Stable
- The estimate meets the release’s sample size and relative standard error thresholds. It still has sampling uncertainty.
