“Research released Thursday by a firm created by two former Census Bureau officials revealed that U.S. median household income fell almost 5 percent from June 2009, when the last economic recession was said to have ended, through June 2012. Americans age 55-64 took it on the chin during the post-recession period starting in June 2009, seeing household incomes plunge nearly 10 percent, according to data produced by Sentier Research (PDF). Younger Americans ages 25-34 also saw their incomes drop by nearly 9 percent.”
