Detailed explanation-1: -Men in the United States have long earned more than women, on average, but this gender wage gap has slowly narrowed over time. The gap tends to be smaller among younger workers. This analysis examines the extent to which the gender wage gap among young workers also varies across metro areas.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are three major contributors to the ongoing pay discrepancy: job type, discrimination and shouldering caregiving duties, Fry said. For one, women are overrepresented in low-paying service jobs relative to men.
