根据美国人口普查局周二发布的数据，2025年，也就是唐纳德·特朗普总统第二任期的第一年，美国中等家庭收入增长2.6%，达到87460美元。
这是该局自1967年开始统计以来，经通胀调整后的家庭收入最高值。
与此同时，贫困率下降0.5个百分点至10.2%，无保险率基本维持在7.9%。儿童贫困率下降1个百分点至13.4%，为有记录以来最低水平。
不过，全年全职工作者的中等收入在2025年没有显著变化，尽管女性的收入增长了3.2%。
这份衡量美国人经济福祉的年度人口普查报告值得关注，因为特朗普曾多次声称，在他的领导下，美国的表现远优于其前任前总统乔·拜登时期。
“这是总统任期内财政和其他各方面最成功的两年，”特朗普周三在共和党全国代表大会上说道。
尽管收入有所增长，但许多美国人仍感到经济拮据，因为食品杂货、公用事业、住房成本和其他生活必需品的价格居高不下。共和党和民主党都承认，美国正面临支付能力危机。
拜登政府任期内，中等收入几乎没有增长，当时美国不得不应对新冠疫情引发的经济动荡后遗症以及一段时期的高通胀。经通胀调整后，美国家庭中等收入直到2023年才恢复到疫情前的峰值水平，且在拜登任期的最后一年基本持平。
值得注意的是，人口普查的中等收入数据不包括股票等资本收益，而这类收益通常惠及高收入美国人。那些有能力进行投资的人近年来财富不断积累。2025年，标准普尔500指数上涨16.39%，连续第三年实现两位数涨幅。
Median US income rises to highest on record even as Americans feel affordability pinch

Americans’ median household income rose 2.6% or $87,460, in 2025, the first year of President Donald Trump’s second term, according to Census Bureau data released on Tuesday.
This is the highest household income, which is adjusted for inflation, since the agency started measuring it in 1967.
Meanwhile, the poverty rate dipped by half a percentage point to 10.2%, and the uninsured rate stayed essentially the same at 7.9%. The poverty rate for children fell a percentage point to 13.4%, the lowest on record.
However, median earnings for full-time year-round workers did not change significantly in 2025, although women saw an increase in earnings of 3.2%.
The annual Census report, an important measure of Americans’ economic well-being, is notable because Trump has repeatedly claimed that the country is doing far better under his leadership than under his predecessor, former President Joe Biden.
“This has been the most successful two years financially and every other way in the history of the presidency,” Trump said at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday.
Despite the increase in income, many Americans are feeling financially squeezed as prices for groceries, utilities, housing costs and other essentials remain stubbornly high. Both Republicans and Democrats have acknowledged that America is suffering from an affordability crisis.
Median income barely rose during the Biden administration, which had to contend with the aftermath of the economic upheaval wrought by the Covid-19 pandemic and a period of soaring inflation. Median household income did not return to its inflation-adjusted pre-pandemic peak until 2023 and remained essentially flat during Biden’s last year in office.
Notably, the Census’ median income figure does not include capital gains from stocks, which typically benefit higher-earning Americans. Those who have the means to invest have seen their wealth accumulate in recent years. The S&P 500 rose 16.39% in 2025, its third consecutive year of double-digit gains.
