English Wage/Income Gap Correlation Chart

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 570,280,543 people shows a significant positive correlation between the proportion of English and wage/income gap percentage in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.654 and weighted average of 29.9%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in English within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.46% in wage/income gap percentage.
English Wage/Income Gap
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of English and wage/income gap percentage does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of English influences an upward or downward trend in the level of wage/income gap percentage within an area, or if English simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of wage/income gap percentage due to other factors.
