Working less, enjoying more

Catherine Rampell has had some interesting posts on Economx which dig deeper into the gender pay gap in the USA.

I just want to note here another small piece of evidence that women travel less than men, & that this may affect earnings capacity.

Men also spend more time commuting to work, with a median commute that is 20 percent longer (24 minutes for men versus 20 minutes for women)
