Each year the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey<\/b> provides dozens of tables of interesting data related to education – tracking enrollment in public and private schools, the number of individuals holding bachelor’s degrees in various fields, and cross-tabulating educational levels with characteristics as diverse as place of birth, mobility and race. Data on the relationship between educational attainment and income are available in table S1501<\/a> of the ACS. Based on the data in that table, the thematic map and chart below illustrate the relationship between education and income, as well as the gap in income between men and women with equivalent levels of educational attainment – from those with less than a high school diploma to those with a graduate or professional degree.<\/p>\n
