[quote=Anonymous]I didn't make sense above. "Middle Class" is defined by all US incomes, not relative to average income in your area. Even if you say, reasonably, that all costs will be less when incomes are less, the professional jobs that pay a "middle class" salary pay about the same all over the US. There are just more unemployed and poverty-level employed in some places. However, in a very few areas of the country, there is a large enough concentration of the "super rich," which push up the cost of things like restaurants, rent, and private school. So, in some parts of the country, your doctors, lawyers, and college professors can afford private school without TA, and your average Joe with a decent job can afford it with a little bit of TA. In DC, they can't. [/quote]
