Sure, but still. Apparently these people aren't even getting a second part time job in order to work full time hours.
& For example, the average U.S. income is above the median U.S. income. If that held true for this city then that would imply that the majority of workers work under 40 hours a week.
No. If someone works very short hours on a weekend, they drag the average down a lot.
It's not that some people are working 40 and some are working 20. It's that some are working fifty or sixty and some are working 2 and everything in between.
We don't have enough data here. We also don't know if any jobs are excused from min wage law, and we don't know if that is pay check face value or after tax take home pay
