Women Do $6.4K More Of Unpaid Housework Than Men A Year

Author LauRen Merola
Don't be judgemental.

Ladies, do you feel like you’re always spending more time doing chores around the house than the men you live with? New research shows you are, and it breaks down just how much that time is and how much it’s worth.

According to NY Post, a new study from home cleaning service Homeaglow looks into how much time Americans spend on housekeeping and how much that time comes out to based on the average hourly wage.

  • To find out, they analyzed the Time Use Survey and Hourly Wage from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
  • They found that on average, American adults – both men and women – did 34 minutes of housework a day in 2022. That comes out to $19.69 per day, and for a year it’s a total of 208 hours (8.7 days) and $7,188.
  • But when researchers broke it down by gender, they found that men only do an average of 19 minutes of housework a day, worth a total of $3,909 per year, while women do an average of 49 minutes of it a day, for a total of $10,341 per year.
  • That means the average woman does $6,431 more unpaid labor than the average man in a year.
  • Think spending an average of 8.7 days a year on housework sounds like a lot? The data shows that number is actually fairly low.
  • The study finds that Alaskans spend the most time of any state on household chores, at an average of 50 minutes a day, or 303 hours/12.6 days a year.
  • It’s also the state that has the biggest difference between how much time men and women spend on housework, which makes it the “most unequal.”
  • On the flip side, residents of Washington, D.C. spend the least amount of time on housework, at an average of just 23 minutes a day, or 142.4 hours/5.9 days a year.
  • New Mexico is the state closest to having “housework equality” between men and women.

5 of the Best Burgers on Menus in North Carolina

There are a few things that get me more excited than anything. That’s shopping and eating. Whether it’s me cooking a new meal, cooking my favorite meal, or even going to some of my favorite restaurants. One of the best things to also do is try new foods and restaurants around your area. I have moved around quite a few times in the last few years, but in every spot I lived, I went looking for restaurants. Whether it was simple stuff like American and pizza or I was trying new stuff like Tex-Mex when living in Houston, TX.

While sitting and eating my somewhat healthy lunch, I started thinking about cheeseburgers. This is somewhat ironic because I am not a fan of cheeseburgers but sometimes those burgers can really hit the spot. A juicy patty with a great slice of cheese and tons of topping options is one of those things everyone can call a great meal. Don’t even let me get started on having the perfect side item to go along with that burger.

So, while I was sitting and thinking I decided to go look up some great cheeseburgers in the state of North Carolina. Now, I know that is probably a wide range but I wanted to see how crazy some of these restaurants get. I wanted to see if I could find those hidden gems with some crazy, super tasty cheeseburger options. So, take a ride through my mind and check out 5 of the best cheeseburgers I could find in North Carolina.

  • Mama Crow’s Burger and Salad Shop

    Up first, we’re visiting a spot in Raleigh, North Carolina. Mama Crow’s is a burger joint serving up a few different burger options for one to enjoy. One of their famous and most popular burgers is their smash burger. The burger is double smashed patties with cheese curds, mushrooms, onions, goat cheese, and black mayo on fresh bread. How insane does that burger sound? You can even add bacon on to it and make it your own a little! They also have burger specials and deals you can try throughout the year.

  • Hops Burger Bar

    Now, we’re heading to Greensboro, North Carolina to check out this burger bar. Hops Burger Bar is serving up fresh burgers with some locally grown ingredients to include on it. Each week they do a different featured burger for guests to try and enjoy. The options are endless. One burger that looked great to me is the pickleback. Enjoy a burger topped with fried onion rings, bbq sauce, and bourbon marinated pickles. Like what?! I can only imagine! They don’t have a photo, but here’s a picture of another insane weekly featured burger.

  • Bang Bang Burgers

    Now, we’re right here in Charlotte. Bang Bang Burgers gives you high-quality, made-from-scratch burgers for you to enjoy. They are very well known for their burger options and the menu does not disappoint. One burger you might enjoy is the Tint Burger. This burger can be in either a single or a double and it comes with pepper jack cheese, onion strings, shaved jalapenos, and siracho mayo. Whew!

  • The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar

    Now, I am sure that sushi is not the first thing you think about when you are talking about a burger. Well, The Cowfish is one spot you might think about both because that’s what they are serving up. The have a location in both Charlotte and Raleigh to enjoy. The Charlotte menu has tons of options, but one burger that stands out is the jalapeno popper show stopper burger. This burger comes with 1/2 pound of beef, jalapeno infused cream cheese, jalapeno bacon, fried jalapenos, jalapeno citrus aioli, lettuce, tomato, and fresh jalapenos on a brioche bun. Now, talk about a beast of a burger!

  • Jack Brown's Beer & Burgers

    Head to Greenville, North Carolina (or South Carolina) to visit this spot! Jack Brown’s is a burger joint that serves 100% wagyu beef burgers putting unique twists on some of your favorite classics. One of their famous everyday classics is the Elvis burger. It’s a burger topped with peanut butter, mayo, applewood smoked bacon, and American cheese. Now, I am not sure how I feel about that peanut butter, so someone else should try it out and let me know!
