US median household income rose by 4% in 2023 to $80,610, marking the first increase since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, according to Census data. This rise in inflation-adjusted income brings household earnings back to 2019 levels, reflecting a recovery from pandemic disruptions and surging inflation. The official poverty rate declined to 11.1%, while the supplemental poverty rate increased to 12.9%.
