About this site

Your income ranked compares the figures you enter with published official tables.

What this site does

Your income ranked is an independent comparison tool that turns published income, salary and household wealth thresholds into accessible calculators. It is free to use and has no affiliation with HMRC, ONS or the US Census Bureau.

One number, several different questions

Salary measures employee pay. Total individual income can also include pensions, rental profit and investment income. Household wealth measures accumulated assets after relevant debts. The tools keep those definitions separate and show the source period alongside the result.

Where the numbers come from

The UK salary tools use ONS ASHE 2025 provisional annual gross pay. The main income calculator uses HMRC’s 2023/24 taxpayer distribution. Household wealth uses the dated Great Britain survey, and the US comparison uses Census household income. Source links, downloadable thresholds and limitations are on the methodology page.

How updates work

The salary tables were checked against the ONS source workbooks on 17 October 2026. Calculators, page tables and worked examples use the same stored salary data. A provisional release can be revised; a survey year is not a forecast of current pay. Each source has its own release schedule.

What a rank cannot establish

A percentile does not tell us whether a specific job offer is fair, how secure your household is, or what lifestyle you can afford. Location, working hours, dependants, housing and accumulated assets matter. Use the comparisons as context for further questions.

About the photographs

The sailing and skiing images were generated with AI. They illustrate spending and wealth, and do not depict particular people, destinations or possessions. They are not evidence of what a given salary can afford. The quantitative charts use the labelled source data.
