Women Make the Most Money in These States

For working women, Washington, D.C., may offer the most bang for the buck.

Female workers in the nation's capital have the highest median earnings — adjusted for cost of living — compared to those in any of the 50 states, according to a new WalletHub study that measured the best and worst states for working women.

Women working in Minnesota, Delaware, Virginia and Illinois also came in the top five for highest median earnings, according to the study.
