States With the Worst Plan
Access for Lower Earners
Nearly 41 million people-or one in three
workers-earned less than $37,000 in 2021, according to
new data. The Economic Innovation Group considers this
demographic the low-income workforce.
Only 30% of these low-income workers had access
to an employer-provided retirement plan, which means
approximately 28 million workers did not.
Florida, California and Connecticut were the
worst-performing states, where under 25% of the low-income
workforce had access. This is particularly noteworthy in
California, where 3.6 million lacked access to an employerprovided
retirement plan-the most, by state, in the nation.
Account Balances Grow
Retirement balances increased for the third straight quarter
due in part to improving market conditions. Average 401(k)
balances were up 4% quarter-on-quarter, and the average
403(b) account balance increased 5%. Average retirement
account balances for a sample group of participants
quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year were:
