[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are DCUM UMC. You are in the top 3-5% of the DC metropolitan region and the top 2-3% of the nation. But DCUM considers you UMC because the audience here is largely self-selected from the wealthier portions of the metropolitan area. In reality Middle class is about the 40th to 75th percentiles. That is realistically about $75K-150K. Nationwide, the top 10% (e.g. the 90th percentile) has an HHI of about $200K and around the DC area, that is about $250K.[/quote] Comparing your HHI/NW with nationwide avg is meaningless. You need to compare with ppl in DMV area because this is where you live and COL is adjusted. OP is clearly not UMC. Our NW is 15x (but same HHI) and I don't even consider ourselves UMC. [/quote] *top 3-5% of the DC Metropolitan area* is not a nationwide comparison and the top 3-5% is, in no way, shape, or form, the middle. [/quote]
