Working remotely has continued to be widespread among Americans, benefiting many employees and employers alike. As one factor, employees who work remotely are associated with higher-income households than those who never work remotely. A third of remote workers are in households earning $100,000 or more versus 22% of those who never work remotely. While the income gap was wider in 2021, the difference is still substantial in 2023. This is not to say that there is a causal effect because many other factors are involved in who does and does not work remotely, such as occupation, industry, employer policy, employee choice, and location.
