Korean Wage/Income Gap

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 510,260,978 people shows a slight positive correlation between the proportion of Koreans and wage/income gap percentage in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.095 and weighted average of 25.4%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Koreans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.039% in wage/income gap percentage.

It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Koreans and wage/income gap percentage does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Koreans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of wage/income gap percentage within an area, or if Koreans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of wage/income gap percentage due to other factors.
