What is the average salary in the UK and US?



Answers:
In the UK it's around £27,000 a year. However "average" is a subjective term and includes the salaries of those making mega bucks and a few people earning enormous salaries drives the average so far up that the number is meaningless in real terms.

A more useful figure would be the "median" salary and for most of the UK that's more likely to be £20-22,000 a year.

Sorry I've no idea about the US.
usa is 5.15 an hour- thats minium wage.
8-13 bucks an hour
my husbnd earns 39.0000 in uk
£22,000 in the UK.
my dad makes 35 dollars an hour
average id depending on if you live in london, because you get more money there for doing the same job in the north because its a higher cost of living in london. mu hubby earns 19,000 which is reasonable but you can earn a min of roughly 14,000.
I'm not sure about the UK, but a couple of years ago, I heard on the business news that the average US salary was around $45,000/yr. I'm sure it's gone up since then since the highest-paid members of our society (those earning more than 6-digit per year) have raised their own salaries. Since the minimum wage hasn't gone up those increases at the top will pull up the average nation-wide.

Two other popular (and related) statistical concepts are the mode (most frequent value in a set) and the median (sorting all values in a set, it's the value in the middle). In the U.S., I wouldn't be surprised if the mode salary was minimum wage ($5.15/hr) and the median somewhere very close to minimum wage.
Around £20,000 in the UK.
