    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    The median net worth of single, white, non-Hispanic women aged 36-49 is $42,000, while the net worth of single black and Hispanic women has a median of only $5.

    White women of any age with children over 18 have a median wealth of $45,400, while white women with children under 18 have a median wealth of $7,970. Race again drastically changes this, however, as black women with children over 18 have a median net worth of only $100, and Hispanic women in the same situation have a median net worth of $120. Both, with children under 18, have a median net worth of $0.

    The net worth of a person consistently rises for those who are male, those who are white, those that share an income with a cohabiter and those without children.
