[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$200K HHI would put you at the 79th percentile in the District. I think you’d be closer to 85th percentile in the DC metro area. $200K is middle class inside the Beltway.[/quote] I wonder what the real percentile is when you eliminate the outliers. Take out the retirees, the young, single people, the drug addicts, the unmotivated that really don’t care to work much. If you could only include married couples with kids who are at least semi stable people, then I would imagine that 79th percentile does move somewhere near the median if you are using a comparison group that most here would use. If you further limit it to college grads from top 100 schools and dual income, then it’s likely below average. It matters who you compare yourself to.[/quote]
