The Wage Gap By State for Hispanic Women
Families depend on women’s wages more than ever, but the typical woman working full time, year round is paid less than the typical full-time, year-round male worker in every state. For Hispanic women the wage gap is even larger than for women overall. The wage gap for Hispanic women working full time, year round also varies widely by state, as indicated in the map and table below. Hispanic women fared best in Vermont, where the typical Hispanic woman working full time, year round made 72.1 cents for every dollar her white, non-Hispanic male counterparts made. Maine and New Hampshire followed Vermont with the ratio of Hispanic women’s to white, non-Hispanic men’s earnings at 69.4 percent and 69.3 percent, respectively.
