[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is UMC and what is MC? Objectively I'd say we are UMC because our HHI ($270k) is well above the median for the DMV, but are nowhere near being able to afford a home in McLean, for example. But I guess we live MC lives. We live in a townhouse. Our family vacations are not fancy. We do splurge on nice meals from time to time. We are pretty happy because: - DH and I both make similar amounts of money and both have flexible, low-key jobs that allow for a lot of family time - We have hybrid work schedules and when we do commute, it is not far. - We live below our means so we don't stress about money We are definitely not stressed about sending our DD to a competitive college. Worrying about that seems bizarre. We just want her to be happy and be able to support herself with a decent job. There are a lot of colleges that can deliver that.[/quote] You are not middle class.
