Go ahead, enter your household income here, find out where you really fall.

Hint- if you're a techie in SF, you're reaaaaallll near the top.
- anovikov 13y agoHahaha it shows percentiles above 100% for income above 220k for women and 450k for men (both unmarried and living alone = all 3 figures equal) - that javascript is broken.
- klipt 13y agoUS rank isn't very informative though. It doesn't take into account cost of living, or (assuming they're using pre-tax salary) even the difference in state taxes. A comfortable salary in Houston would be much less comfortable in San Francisco because you're suddenly paying 10% of your income to state taxes and paying 4x as much rent.
- anovikov 13y agoCorrect. Most of people who are statistically upper class (meaning '1%') are living in much pricier places so they don't really feel so upper.
