The difference in household incomes across age groups is not as statistically significant as the individual income. This highlights the mitigating effects of household incomes brought in by other

The difference between genders with regards to household income is not as stark as individual income. This is because men also contribute to household income of the women respondent. Nevertheless, the left tilt of the income distribution of women respondents is visible pointing to the lower incomes of the women-headed households.
