Source for median household income in western European nations? Edit: Even if you do have a source (which I doubt), household income is not a good one to compare wealth by. It could mean people there are wealthier than in a place with lower household income, it could also just mean that the people there are too poor to be able to move out of their family homes and therefore there are a lot less households and thus obviously a higher average income per household. If you want to make a fairer comparison, look for the average wage per person, rather than per household. |
Why would you assume that such data is not available in developed countries? Spain and Italy for example are far below 40K hh income. Family structure only comes into play if there are multiple bread winners and I don't think the situation is so fundamentally different in US or western Europe.
