Lawrence County, PA gender pay gap statistics

In Lawrence County, the population consists of 41,971 males (48.63%) and 44,340 females (51.37%), a breakdown further detailed in Lawrence County population by gender.

With a gender ratio of 94.7:100 i.e. 94.7 men to 100 women (0.947), Lawrence County hosts fewer men than women. This demographic distribution sets the backdrop for our exploration into gender-based income disparities within the area.

Historically, addressing gender-based pay differences has been a pressing concern, prompting substantial efforts not only from government initiatives but also from advocacy groups, businesses, and social movements. To explore this further within the context of Lawrence County, our analysis will focus on examining the income data to understand the reality of gender-based pay differences.

Here are the key findings from our analysis:

  • All workers, aged 15 years and older: In Lawrence County, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $41,900 for males and $25,860 for females.

    These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in Lawrence County. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 62 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 38%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the county of Lawrence County.

  • Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Lawrence County, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $61,399, while females earned $44,980, leading to a 27% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 73 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This analysis indicates a widening gender pay gap, showing a substantial income disparity where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same roles.

    Surprisingly, the gender pay gap percentage was higher across all roles, including non-full-time employment, for women compared to men. This suggests that full-time employment offers a more equitable income scenario for women compared to other employment patterns in Lawrence County.

To visualize the evolving trend, here is a line chart depicting the changes in gender-specific annual median incomes over time in Lawrence County, encompassing both full-time and all workers aged 15 years and older.

Lawrence County, PA gender and employment-based income distribution analysis (Ages 15+)

To gain insights into gender-based income distribution within the Lawrence County population, we conducted an analysis across 20 distinct brackets for males and females aged 15 years and over, covering both full-time year-round workers and other employment designations.

Within Lawrence County, among individuals aged 15 years and older with income, there were 31,785 men and 31,629 women in the workforce. Among them, 15,592 men were engaged in full-time, year-round employment, while 12,290 women were in full-time, year-round roles.

Analyzing the percentage of full-time, year-round workers to the total workforce reveals that among men, the proportion of full-time employment was 49.05%, whereas among women, the ratio was 38.86%. This indicates that a higher percentage of men were engaged in full-time, year-round roles compared to women.

The observed disparity may stem from various factors such as industry choices, societal expectations, or employment opportunities, revealing potential gender-based variations in employment trends within Lawrence County.

Parenthood, for instance, is one such factor influencing these trends. Women between 25 and 44 years old who are mothers are less inclined to participate in the workforce compared to women of the same age without children at home. Furthermore, when employed, these mothers often work fewer hours per week, adding to the observed disparities in full-time employment between genders.

To provide a more comprehensive understanding of income distribution, we have grouped the original income brackets into five broader categories for analysis purposes: Under $24,999, $25,000 to $49,999, $50,000 to $74,999, $75,000 to $99,999, and above $100,000. This grouping allows for a more focused assessment of income disparities across distinct income ranges, offering clearer insights into gender-based income distributions within the Lawrence County population.

The analysis unveiled the following key findings:

  • Annual income under $24,999: Of the male population working full-time, 6.61% fell within the income range of under $24,999, while 10.59% of the female population working full-time was represented in the same income bracket.

    A higher percentage of females compared to males falling within the under $24,999 income bucket suggests a potential disparity, indicating a greater concentration of women in this lower income range.

  • Annual income between $25,000 and $49,999: 29.69% of males in full-time employment were within the $25,000 to $49,999 income range, while 47.75% of females in full-time roles were represented in this income bracket. Moreover, among other employment categories, 27.86% of males and 20.28% of females fell into this income range.

    Considering the population aged 15 years and older with income across all employments, 28.76% of the total male population and 30.95% of the total female population were encompassed within this income bracket.

    The higher representation of females compared to males in the $25,000 to $49,999 income bracket indicates a potential inequality, emphasizing a greater prevalence of women within this lower-middle income range.

  • Annual income between $50,000 and $74,999: 24.73% of men in full-time employment fell within the $50,000 to $74,999 income bracket, while 25.14% of women in full-time positions were also within this income range.

    The higher proportion of males compared to females in the $50,000 to $74,999 income bracket suggests a potential inequality, emphasizing a greater prevalence of men within this middle-income range.

  • Annual income between $75,000 and $99,999: 15.59% of men in full-time roles occupied the $75,000 to $99,999 income bracket, while 12.88% of women in full-time positions shared this income range. Additionally, among individuals in other non-full-time employment categories, 2.72% of men and 1.67% of women were situated within this specific income bracket.

    In total, among the entire population aged 15 years and older with income across all job types, 9.04% of the total male population and 6.02% of the total female population fell within the $75,000 to $99,999 income bracket.

    The elevated ratio of males to females in the $75,000 to $99,999 income bracket hints at a potential inequality, underscoring a stronger predominance of men within this upper-middle income range.

  • Annual income above $100,000: 23.38% of men in full-time roles earned incomes exceeding $100,000, while 3.64% of women in full-time positions earned within this income bracket. Additionally, among those in alternative non-full-time employment, 2.49% of men and 0.87% of women earned within this income bracket.

    The increased proportion of males compared to females in the above $100,000 income bracket suggests a potential inequality, emphasizing a greater predominance of men in this higher income range.
