First five states are Blue States and the last five (considered the poorest) are Red States…🤔 Are the best in between?

From the chart, it says:
“Middle class is defined as earning between
two-thirds and twice the medium household income.”

May be i the text somewhere, but owning your hmoe outright along with cars would seem to be a huge factor in this.

Alabama $41,000 minimum.

My SS is less. SS + mandatory retirement disbursement = approx. $41k, probably a bit more.

But I am single household w/ low expenses and a semi-hermit lifestyle.

yeah but the catch is you have to live there :)

Not the trade-off i’m looking for.

I like being on a relatively cheap island that is a half hour from a bustling city.

As I age though, I could see a quieter state sounding very nice

Oh Goody!🙄🙄

My state is just behind Massachusetts and New Yersey. Try harder, Maryland!🙄🙄

That's a really flawed and pathetic methodology because it only looks at incomes, not cost of living, ignores your zip code, and ignores family size.

64k minimum is NOT middle class in most of CA
Closer 125k
