I don't know anyone outside of tech or medicine bringing in 200k for the household. It looks like that would put you in the top 5% of income, squarely outside of the norm: http://www.investopedia.com/financial-edge/0912/which-income-class-are-you.aspx http://www.investopedia.com/financial-edge/0912/which-income...
- home_boi 10y agoI am assuming he means $100k per person in NYC/SF. That's the entry level salary for even marketing/business workers in many companies.
- alistairSH 10y agoNeither of those are small or mid-size cities. Throwing out $200k as a typical middle-class income just demonstrates the bubble the OP lives in. I live in one of the wealthiest counties in the nation (Fairfax) and we don't come anywhere close to a $200k median household income.
- paulddraper 10y agoTwo-income households are very common nowdays. So 100k, which is less abnormal. But I agree; 200k is not the bottom bar or average for middle class.
