    Median Family Income Trends

    As you requested, I have analyzed the trends for median family income in the United
    States for the years 1972-1987. Below you will find a graph that represents the trends
    over this time period for three racial/ethnic groups. As you can clearly see, White
    families in the United States have significantly higher median incomes over the 15 years
    studied when compared to Black and Hispanic American families. If anything, this gap
    slightly widened towards the end of this period. If you have any additional questions
    about this issue, please let me know.
