There is also some really pertinent information about the make up of the labor force and how female representation in certain professions has changed since 1979 - some real encouragement there. For example, in 1970, 4.3% of judges and lawyers were women; in 2010, it was 33.4%. For full statistics go here census.gov

So what it comes down to is that women are paid - on average - 22% less than men. It seems that if you want to earn more you need to pack your bags and head to California as this is the most female-friendly state with six cities in the sixteen.

Would you be prepared to move for bigger earning potential?
