Without knowing number of people per household, you cannot draw any conclusions on the top 20% spending 3x the bottom 20%.
The top 20% might have a disproportionate amount of family of 4+ with kids in their teenage years and parents in their highest earning years.
The bottom 20% might disproportionately be senior citizens collecting Social Security with no kids.
Also, top 20% are living in more expensive regions than bottom 20%. Lots of conflating factors to tease out that would result in 3x not being the correct multiple.
