Where can I find the average incomes of individuals by age, location, etc.?

Question

I've checked the census reports, but could only really find median household incomes, as opposed to individual income. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Individual income is compiled at http://www.bls.gov

Answer 2

I imagine the census records these data, but I'm not personally familiar with a way to access them. I do, however, have plenty of experience getting information like this from the General Social Survey, which is a large national survey that gathers a wide variety of information.

You can access the data at the website below. It lets you break things down by age, location, sex, and a wide variety of other variables.

The menu on the left will help you select the variables you want to use; the INCOME variables are for households, and RINCOME ones measure individual income. There are different ones for different years to compensate for inflation, as well as some that indexed to a specific year.

Answer 3

By using Yahoo maps you can refine your search by neighborhoods and it will give you all the medians
