Household Income Distribution in the USA
arXiv:1602.06234 · doi:10.1140/epjb/e2016-60670-1
Abstract
In this article we present an alternative model for the distribution of household incomes in the United States. We provide arguments from two differing perspectives which both yield the proposed income distribution curve, and then fit this curve to empirical data on household income distribution obtained from the United States Census Bureau.
