Scandinavian Wage/Income Gap

It remains uncertain whether the presence of Scandinavians influences an upward or downward trend in the level of wage/income gap percentage within an area, or if Scandinavians simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of wage/income gap percentage due to other factors.
