Indian-American households have the highest median household income in the U.S., well over $145K a year, according to data from the Pew Research Center.
This wage gap could be driven by high educational attainment, a strong presence in STEM and high-paying industries, as well as residential concentration in major economic hubs like SF, NY, or even Texas.
Higher income is gradually translating into economic influence as well as increasing social and political influence—a key factor expected to be at the center of emerging U.S. India relations in the new Trump era.
