Median income purchasing power parity per country in 2013:

That list is ordered according to Gross per-capita income in int$ (PPP) or dollars converted into units that have equal purchasing power locally.

I'm a bit surprised to see that four out of the five Nordic countries are in the top 10 and above the US. The fact that the US has a more top heavy income distribution is apparent from this statistic.

What really surprises me is that Germany is over 6% below Finland. Almost everything is cheaper in Germany. But I guess there are more people with lower levels of income in Germany. They have what are called mini-jobs.
