Income by Age of Householder, 2012

Median household income by age of householder did not change significantly between 2011 and 2012. That stability is good news, because incomes fell each year between 2007 and 2011. All but the oldest age group have a long way to go before they catch up to where they were five years ago.

Median household income in 2012 (and percent change since 2007, after adjusting for inflation)
Total households: $51,017 (-8.3%)
Under age 25: $30,604 (-13.1%)
Aged 25 to 34: $51,381 (-9.1%)
Aged 35 to 44: $63,629 (-7.5%)
Aged 45 to 54: $66,411 (-8.4%)
Aged 55 to 64: $58,626 (-7.7%)
Aged 65-plus: $33,848 (+8.0%)
