Do You Make More Than Your Friends?

Ever wonder whether your income is higher – or lower – than that of other people your age?

It’s time to find out.

FiLife’s Household Income Stacker compares your household income (that’s the number you report to the IRS every year) to household incomes across the country. You can narrow the search and compare yourself to people in different age brackets and in different zip codes.

I found out that someone making $65,000 a year has a higher household income than 44% of 20–30 year olds living in the 90210 zip code. Meanwhile, that person brings in more than 80% of 20–30 year olds living in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Fun stuff.

FiLife offers a bunch of other Stackers too. You can test how your rent payment, your home value, your car value, your credit score, your student loans and even your credit card debt stack up. Give them a whirl!
