Where does this data come from, and when is it updated?
From Connecticut Office of the State Comptroller (osc.ct.gov). Our figures match the agency's latest release; the agency updates it every pay period.
"Typical pay" is the median: half earn more, half earn less. "Most earn" is the middle half of workers. "Employed all year" means the Comptroller's data shows the person was hired before January 1 (or was on the previous year's payroll) and has no termination date during the year. Hire and end dates are used only to work this out; we don't store or publish them. Figures are calculated by PublicPayData from the official dataset; 18 records with $0 or negative pay are left out.
