Median Hourly Pay by County or Local Authority: Choropleth Map

Data provided by the UK Government and the Office for National Statistics

A chloropleth map showing gender pay inequality data in the counties or local authorities of the United Kingdom. The general trend is that women get paid 5-15% less but there are some areas in the South of England where women get paid 15% less hourly. There are some parts of South Wales, North Wales or Northern Ireland where women get paid slightly more. In some parts of Scotland hourly pay is nearly equal. The user can adjust the time frame of the data being shown, back to 2017. The default is all years. The general trend is as time continues forwards, fewer parts of the country have equal pay and more pay inequality appears on the map. As with all chloropleth maps, it is important to consider population density.
