It’s all
about women being on top! Research compiled by the Department of Sociology at Queens College (New York) indicate that fulltime female workers in their 20s earn more than same-age males in the cities of Chicago, Boston, Minneapolis, Dallas and New York. While in New York City, these women professionals earn 17% more than men, in Dallas (Texas) they earn 20% more. But strangely, women are no longer on top by the time they cross 30. And it’s only been over the last seven years that women have started to surpass men’s salaries in urban centers. One reason for women getting ahead of men at these centers, the study summarises, could be that they get married much later in lifein cities than in smaller towns. According to the National Committee on Pay Equity, women (in the US) who are doing best are from the states of Maryland, District of Columbia and Massachusetts, while they fall behind in money matters in Arkansas, Louisiana, and West Virginia.
