Please note that due to a typographical error, the stated hourly nominal $ wages for 2009 in New York (third column, first row, Table 1) are incorrect. This figure should in fact read 29.0 (rather than 2.0), identical to the adjusted PPP figure, given that PPP values are based on purchasing power proportional to that of US consumers.
