In just a few years, several countries went from "lower middle class can afford housing" to "lower middle class can barely meet wage requirements to be allowed to rent". The typical lower middle class job is still the same serviceable white collar job it was before, including many junior-medior software developers outside the SV bubble (read: anywhere age 20-35). There are very little signs momentum will slow down. From my understanding, things aren't much different in the US.
Sounds like the problem isn't as easy as "just get a better job bro".
- rayiner 5y agoLol at developers anywhere in the US being lower middle class.

Where in US junior-medium level software engineers make $35k/year? This is around median individual income, so should square put one in lower middle class or above.
