The U.S. Census Bureau measures income inequality using household income. 1 ﻿﻿﻿ It compares it by quintile, which is the population divided into fifths. Another commonly-used measurement is the Gini index. It summarizes the distribution of income into a single number. It ranges from zero, which is a perfectly equal distribution, to one, where only one person has all the money. 2 ﻿﻿﻿
