About this chart

Luxembourg’s median daily income was 87.47 international dollars in the 2022 comparison, ahead of Norway at 75.87 and Austria at 72.68. The United States recorded 67.72. These values use purchasing-power adjustment at 2021 prices, so they compare estimated purchasing power rather than the dollars received after a market-rate currency exchange.

The World Bank series combines income and consumption surveys. Income generally means disposable income after taxes and benefits; consumption is a different welfare measure used in many countries. These medians are per person, not wages per worker, and differences in survey design limit how precisely close rankings can be interpreted.
