2007 Median Family Income

The Census Bureau releases annual estimates of median family income based on data from the American Community Survey. Data are limited to the household population and exclude the population living in institutions, college dormitories, and other group quarters.

South Carolina Median Family Income by Family Size: 2007
(In 2007 inflation-adjusted dollars)

  Estimate Margin of Error
Total: 52,913 +/-835
2-person families 48,944 +/-1,093
3-person families 52,806 +/-1,745
4-person families 63,535 +/-2,586
5-person families 61,359 +/-2,474
6-person families 53,184 +/-3,995
7-or-more-person families 61,349 +/-7,599

South Carolina Median Family Income by Number of Earners in Family: 2007
(in 2007 inflation-adjusted dollars)

  Estimate Margin of Error
Total: 52,913 +/-835
No earners (dollars) 26,451 +/-1,252
1 earner (dollars) 37,296 +/-793
2 earners (dollars) 69,880 +/-1,269
3 or more earners (dollars) 82,769 +/-2,380

Note: Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error. The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.
