For income, one interesting metric would be the distribution. How much do most people make?
Because the US is also a developed country where 15$ an hour with pretty much no coverage is considered "good" in some parts (ie good enough to work as a Facebook content moderator rather than making Big Macs at the local McDonald's)
Edit: I might be a bit rusty on US social safety net & health benefits
America works longer hours, but not the most. Canadians save even less than Americans and have more debt.
And the US has one of the highest median incomes in the world (with a few exceptions).
