What is the U.S. W-2 Wage Income Distribution Above $500,000/yr.?
Prefer footnoted source and a breakdown in approx. $100-$250K increments. A link would be fine.
The U.S. Census' last income bracket is "$100,000 and over" in its "Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage:2010" and the IRS uses AGI up to "$10,000,000 and more" but "Number of Returns" not 'individual wage earners'. I'm looking for **number of individuals** with incomes between $100K-$250K; $250K-$500K; $500K-$750K...and so on.

ROTFL. The IRS deliberately chooses not to divulge that information.
Various statisticians and economists have been trying to get income distribution among the wealthy with varying degrees of success. It can easily be a full time job.

Most people just fit a curve and make deductions from that.

The IRS doesn't report W-2 income. What they do report is Adjusted Gross Income. You can find all that data here at the link below.
