Figures in this table are computed the same way as in Appendix Table 1, except that household heads are between the ages of 55 and 64. The more pronounced and persistent narrowing of the ownership gap by the end of the life-cycle is consistent with an historical interpretation that emphasizes changes in blacks’ permanent income and educational attainment. Figure 2 in the article showed the relationship between the ownership gap and the income gap for older households in the core sample. Below, Web Appendix Figure 3 shows a similar pattern that strongly links the gap in ownership to the gap in average educational attainment.
