In case anyone is interested, Statistics Norway believes that the median after tax income for households consisting of persons living alone under 45 years old was 280,200 NOK/year in 2015. The exchange rate with the dollar varies of course, but this is somewhere between 33,300--38400 USD/year. This report https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publications/2016/demo/p60-256.pdf https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publicatio... suggests that the median income of non-family households in the United States was ~33,800 USD/year, before taxes but after cash transfers from the government. I am not sure how to compare the before and after tax measures, but even if I could, there are still many remaining differences between the United States and Norway. Also note that the two groups being compared are not the same, because of the age restriction.
