Curious to know how much of these overlap.
Are we just looking at a lot of married, 45 year old, Asian college grads with the same salary? Or are these significantly independent variables, with a 30-year old Hispanic high school grad seeing income vary by 3x based on gender and relationship status.
Holy shit I'm more broke then i thought!
What the actual fuck is a householder?
The chart explains the tern to mean "head of household". It's a tax term explained on your 1040.
Generally, to qualify for head of household filing status, you must be able to claim a qualifying child or qualifying relative as a dependent.
In a typical marriage, either spouse can claim. Naturally, the one who makes the most is wise to claim "head of household".
