minus-squarebleistift2@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·1 year agoThe UK government says the median household income is 32,349£, the mean is 39,328£ in 2022. Data from 2020: the median was 29,900£, while the mean was 36,900£. In both cases the median comes way closer to the £27,457 you calculated than the mean.
