There is median household income and there is median earnings of dual income households. They are two different things. You keep talking about the former, I am only interested in the latter. Median household earnings figure contains many single income households. There is no argument from me that buying a house on one income can be difficult. But my original comment way up at the top specifically says dual income households.

No it does 82k median family of four. What is so difficult for You to understand here?

  That 82k figure includes one income households. I want you to exclude all single income households because I am only talking about dual income households. I'm not misunderstanding it, you're just continually citing an irrelevant data point comment after comment. This whole time, I have been talking about dual income households. You can tell me median household income figures until youre blue in the face; I am only talking about dual income household figures. They aren't the same thing. Median household income includes dual income but also single income households. I only want to consider dual income households, because that's who I said can reasonably meet the $114k figure.

    And I keep telling you, that is a dual income stat family of four. Dude. You are trying to cohort into an irrelevant corner of data and then still finding it not satisfactory. Stop, just take the L.

      Dual income marriages had a median household income of roughly $135,000 to $145,000 in 2022. Marriages with a sole earner lagged far behind at around $75,000.

        Clearly I’m the one missing the cue at this point…
