LIST OF WAGES AND HOW TO MAKE A FREE PRINTABLE RESUME
Scroll down to see wages listed by state. To make a free printable resume, follow the instructions on the resume template located below the list.
Most of this wage info was collected from the U.S. Department of Labor. The list shows each state's minimum wage (as of 2009) and per capita income (as of 2007). Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Tennessee have no minimum wage law. Per capita income is the average income per person, per year. Per capita income is misleading, considering that just one percent of the population of the United States receives more than 26 percent of the total US income. In other words, a small number of Americans are making a large number of dollars. To be more specific, roughly 2.4 million US residents over the age of fifteen have an average income of about $900,000 per year. The rest of us - almost 238 million adult residents - have an average income of about $26,000 per year. The imbalance of per capita income data is most notable in Washington DC. The district has (by FAR) a higher average individual income ($54,985 in 2005, and $61,092 in 2007) than ANY U.S. state. This seems odd, considering that DC also has a higher crime rate, a shorter average life expectancy, and more people living in poverty than ANY U.S. state. In terms of median household income, DC ranks only 30th among states.
