The average Chinese citizen earns $865 per year vs 33k for the states.
That figure of $865 per year probably includes itinerant non-skilled workers in calculating that average. Those in professional jobs earn on average 5000 RMB per month .. that's about $735 per month. Still a lot less than the average US monthly wage, but then again, cost of living in China is no way as high as that in the US.
Just as the US figure includes the same demographic.
