How Much Are Self-Employed Women in Business Earning?

The study reported that self-employed women largely fell into two income brackets at complete opposite ends of the earning spectrum. Specifically, self-employed women were “most likely to be either in the first (lowest) or fourth (highest) quartile.”

What is the Average Age of Self-Employed Women Entrepreneurs?

While the study did not report an average age, it was noted that more self-employed women were between the ages of 40 and 59 than any other age groups.

When this was broken into two separate age brackets (40-40 and 50-59) both age groups had the two highest percentages of self-employed women in business.
