The calculator above lets you enter your own household income and see what income percentile you fall into for Pennsylvania, as well as for the entire United States. Your percentile shows the share of households that earn less than you, based on annual pre-tax household income.
All of the numbers on this page come from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates, which group incomes into buckets such as under $10,000, $10,000–$14,999, and so on. This state-level view for Pennsylvania uses those income buckets to summarize the full income distribution and estimate the median.
