According to 2013 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, your income can vary significantly based on your location. This data shows that jobs and pay differ greatly across different regions. For instance, in some areas, people earn six-figure incomes without constant work. The Guardian has provided an interactive visual guide to illustrate these differences, using maps, photos, and videos to show how daily patterns and income levels play out in various locations like Altadena, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu. To delve deeper into these patterns, a simulation of 1,000 individuals was conducted to observe how their entire day unfolds, highlighting the stark contrasts in lifestyle and earnings based on geography.
