The people responding are talking about pretax income. Not post tax. Also, with inflation and high housing prices 200k is not what it used to be. Get real. What used to be upper middle class is not just... well.. middle class. Hard pill for many especially white americans who did everything the right way to accept. |

BS. Anyone who is making over 100k, certainly over 100k, is upper middle class. Especially if the other spouse also works, which is common. DH and I are both GS-15s making 165k and change. That's a lot of money. Yeah, if we want to live in an expensive neighborhood, then it's not send your kids to private school or join the country club money, but it's a lot. We don't take expensive vacations, partly because we don't want to, but we want for nothing. And once the younger kid is out of day care we will feel really flush. |

A household income of 100k with two kids living in nyc or DC is not upper middle class. |
