It was the NYC chart.
But i’m sure there’s six other charts contradicting it :)
I know when I was on SSDI 12500 was too much in a year to get housing help. That was only 3 years ago.
I lived in Manhattan 30 years ago and even then 100,000 a year was getting by and would not buy digs on Central Park west or the upper east side or townhome village digs
30,000 today in NYC for four person family is damn poor as hell
It would be tuff even in rural mid Tn unless you don’t have a mortgage or eat ramen noodles 6 nights a week
A couple of single person with low expense needs can survive on 30,000 but even then it’s hard
Unless self employed they pay on federal income tax and might get 2-4000 in UTC
A form of welfare basically
