Dataset Source: US Minimum Wage Data the data taken from Kaggle helps in describing the US Minimum Wage in all states of USA for a period of 50 years.It is a cleaned data set of US state and federal minimum wages from 1968 to 2017. This can be used for Machine Learning and Data Visualization purposes.
Each row in the data comprises of the Year, State, the Low and High wages, and CPI Average
About the Data: Year: The year of the data. State: The state or territory of the data. High.Value: As there were some values in original Table_Data that had multiple values (usually associated with footnotes), this is the higher of the two values in the table. It could be useful for viewing the proposed minimum wage, because in most cases, the higher value meant that all persons protected under minimum wage laws eventually had minimum wage set at that value. Low.Value: This is the same as High.Value, but has the lower of the two values. This could be useful for viewing the effective minimum wage at the year of setting the minimum wage, as peoples protected under such minimum wage laws made that value during that year (although, in most cases, they had a higher minimum wage after that year). CPI.Average: This is the Consumer Price Index associated with that year. It was used to calculate 2018-equivalent values. High.2018: This is the 2018-equivalent dollars for High.Value. Low.2018: This is the 2018-equivalent dollars for Low.Value.
