The information here has been used by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Cited by a World Bank report.  It used to be located at www.ncat.edu/~burkeym/gini.htm , but it has been moved here for safekeeping.

Update:  People have been asking me about Census 2010 Gini Coefficieints.

Please see my YouTube video explaining why there won't be any, and where to get some substitutes. See www.burkeyacademy.com , or here is the direct link:

I have found it difficult to find Gini coefficients to discuss in class and use in my research, so I created this page to help other teachers and researchers.

If you find this information helpful or have suggestions or corrections, please let me know!
