And found:
> Median household income in Carmel, IN is $132,859.
Is 132K USD middle class? I would say that is upper middle class.
Another search shows:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/205609/median-household-income-in-the-top-20-most-populated-cities-in-the-us/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/205609/median-household-...
San Francisco and San Jose have roughly the same household median income. Those cities are definitely upper middle class by US standards as a whole.
All said, I still greatly value your posts on this topic. It seems like you are someone with first hand knowledge of this transformation. Thanks for taking the time to post about it. HN is better for it!
- bumby 2y ago>Is 132K USD middle class? From what I could find online, it's at about the 77th percentile for the U.S., so bordering on upper class (usually defined as the top quintile). Since the median household income for Indiana is slightly lower than the national median, it's probably safe to say it's upper class for Indiana.
