The average national household income in the United States was recorded at US$90,000 per year in 2018. Asian and White households had higher incomes than the average, at US$119,800 and US$98,300 respectively.
However, the average household income for Hispanic and Black households was significantly below the national average. Hispanic households earned US$70,900, while Black households earned US$58,700 annually.
This income disparity arises from persistent racial discrimination in the United States. This discrimination also contributes to police violence against Black Americans, exemplified by the death of George Floyd in Minnesota.
