Instructions: In this task, you are given a text of many news articles seperated by special token "|||||". Your task is to summarize them.
Input: This archive preserves access to hundreds of California state agency sites. State agencies utilize their websites to publish everything from press releases, agendas, minutes, events, reports and statistics. This material is especially volatile as leadership changes or as time sensitive issues are no longer on agendas or in the news. The archive is maintained by government information specialists and web curators across several UC campuses, the Stanford University Libraries, the California State Library, and the California State Archives. ||||| Worst Cities for Women 
  
 10. Odessa, TX 
  
 > Female earnings as pct. of male: 56.7% 
  
 > Female bachelor’s degree attainment: 18.4% 
  
 > 3 and 4-year olds enrolled in pre-K: 42.7% 
  
 Many of the worst cities for women are in the South. While in Odessa the typical male worker earns $61,950 a year, more than the national median for men of $50,119, the typical female worker earns just $35,139 a year — nearly half of what area men earn and less than the median wage for women nationwide of $40,022 a year. The area’s gender pay gap — women earn 57 cents for every dollar earned by men — is the third widest in the country and persists despite the fact that women in Odessa are more likely to be college educated than men. While an estimated 14.1% of adult men in the metro area have at least a bachelor’s degree, 18.4% of adult women do.

 9. Macon, GA 
  
 > Female earnings as pct. of male: 88.2% 
  
 > Female bachelor’s degree attainment: 24.0% 
  
 > 3 and 4-year olds enrolled in pre-K: 55.8% 
  
 Women in Macon earn 88 cents for every dollar men in the area earn — a narrower gender pay gap than the national gap of 80 cents on the dollar. One reason for the relatively small gender pay gap in Macon, however, may be the low wages overall. The typical area worker earns $39,252 annually, one of the lower incomes of all metro areas. 
  
 Area women also appear to be in poor health. Life expectancy among women in the area is only 77.5 years, well below the 80.8 year life expectancy among women nationwide. Also indicative of poor health is the area’s infant mortality rate of 12.2 infant deaths for every 1,000 live births, the second highest in the nation. Poor health outcomes can often be partially explained by low insurance coverage. Some 12.6% of women in the area lack health insurance, a considerably greater share than the 8.2% uninsured rate among women across the country. 
  
 8. Florence, SC 
  
 > Female earnings as pct. of male: 75.7% 
  
 > Female bachelor’s degree attainment: 20.8% 
  
 > 3 and 4-year olds enrolled in pre-K: 41.4% 
  
 In Florence, South Carolina, women earn only about 76 cents for every dollar men earn — considerably less than the 80 cents per dollar gender pay gap nationwide.

 6. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ 
  
 > Female earnings as pct. of male: 80.7% 
  
 > Female bachelor’s degree attainment: 12.0% 
  
 > 3 and 4-year olds enrolled in pre-K: 43.4% 
  
 Only 12% of women in Lake Havasu City-Kingman have a four-year college degree, the smallest such share of any U.S. metro area. Low educational attainment in a population often accounts for lower incomes, and Lake Havasu is one of only 16 U.S. metro areas where the median annual income for women is less than $30,000. 
  
 Though the gender pay gap in Lake Havasu is roughly in line with the national pay gap, the pay gap in certain professions is more pronounced. For every dollar men in managerial positions earn, women earn only 57 cents. Nationwide, women in management earn 76 cents for every dollar men earn. ||||| Best Cities for Women

 > Female earnings as pct. of male: 77.8%

 > 3 and 4 yr. olds enrolled in pre-K: 66.0%

In addition to being instrumental in childhood development, pre-K programs give parents — usually the mother — the opportunity to leave their children somewhere safe during the day so they can hold a job. Connecticut spends more per pupil on pre-K programs than nearly any other state, and partially as a result, 66% of 3 and 4-year olds in the Bridgeport metro area are enrolled in preschool, a larger share than in all but six other U.S. metro areas. 
  
 Women in Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk also appear to be relatively healthy. Life expectancy among area women is 83.7 years, well above the 79.5 year average life expectancy of males in the area and the 80.8 year life expectancy among women nationwide.

 6. Ames, IA 
  
 > Female earnings as pct. of male: 81.1% 
  
 > Female bachelor’s degree attainment: 49.5% 
  
 > 3 and 4-year olds enrolled in pre-K: 56.2% 
  
 Ames, Iowa ranks as one of the best U.S. metro areas for women due in large part to a higher than typical female life expectancy and a relatively large share of women with a bachelor’s degree. Life expectancy among area women is 82.7 years, and some 49.5% of women in Ames have at least a four-year college degree. Nationwide, female life expectancy is 80.8 years and only 30.9% of women have a bachelor’s degree. 
  
 While a college education is a reliable way to increase earning potential, the gender pay gap is still pronounced in Ames. Metro area women earn only about 81 cents for every dollar area men earn — roughly in line with the gender pay disparity nationwide. ||||| Gender inequality remains a matter of fact in the United States. Women earn roughly 80 cents on the dollar compared to their male counterparts. Many must overcome various stigma related to parenting responsibilities, gender roles, and their participation in the job market. On the other hand, women are more likely to live longer, and they are more likely to have a college degree. 
  
 These challenges and benefits play out differently across the country, and being a female in one major metropolitan area can be meaningfully different than in another, with different prospects and outlook. A job market with a severe gender wage gap can make life hard for women and girls, as can a city with widespread poverty, poor health, and subpar public education. 
  
 24/7 Wall St. reviewed multiple measures of quality of life, both those that apply to women specifically, and those that apply to populations in general, to identify the best and worst cities for women. These included each city’s gender pay gap, as well as college attainment, life expectancy, and insurance rates for women, and the share of 3- and 4-year olds enrolled in Pre-K.
