56 years old.
$1.7M in real estate equity
$1.4M in retirement savings
Almost done saving for private school and college, and saving $200K a year in retirement for the next few years. But we'll likely have to sell the house and downsize because no significant pension. Husband is older and would be retired already if we had saved more responsibly.

But according to the federal government, must Americans at this age are far below that amount, while the highest income Americans (over 200k) have at least that, which skews the average amount saved by 50 above the median. Most banks and news organizations report the data collected by the government on this regularly. Asking random people on the internet is not likely to be accurate.
6x your annual salary is not a good way to calculate the ideal number.
Better to calculate expenses and go from there.

I'm eligible for a pension of $60k/year. That's worth about $1.5m.
Spouse it's eligible for a pension of $50k/year; that's worth $1.25m.
We're both planning to work until 65ish, but
Will you also be eligible for SS along with your pension? If so, you are well set for retirement.

This, and what do you do and how much do you make. You think people give you accurate information? Grow up.
On the contrary, this is exactly where I share accurate information! If I tell my wife how much we are worth, she'd want to go out and buy diamonds. If I tell family, they'd want a loan. If I tell friends, they will be jealous. Who better to share this with than anonymous people on the internet?

Nobody is seeking exact values on an online forum, just estimation of overall trends.
