Most of DC is 1% in the country.

Just because DC has the richest of the rich living here, does not make anyone who is in the actual 1% any less wealthy.

106k. That's it.


That's bullshit because it's counting 18-23yo, who are still undergrads, and even 18-25yo who are still in law or graduate school. I'd be more interested is a study that isolates 27-34yo. If I had to guess, it's probably more like 136k.

It will still be lower than the overall 1% threshold. Another question is married or single earner, as they always speak in terms of household earnings.

OP should realize that the oldest Millenials turn 37 this year.

1% millennial is probably a big law lawyer? Or maybe they're 0.10%? Few years out of law school in DC they pull $200K.

At least 1/3 - 1/2 this amount.

Much of DC is in the top 1-2% of the country


Agreed.

29F and 165K but I don't consider myself a '1-percenter', just lucky and a hard worker.

So you are so worried about making it to the 1 percent level, who are you competing against?

If you have to ask, you're already nowhere close. Also, the millennial age range is far wider than what you've presented here.
