it's above the mean income, however other factors determine how you will actually LIVE.
you have to make 110k in Boston, LA, NY just to live the same as some who are making 68k in Arkansas, Louisiana, or Alabama.
If you are making 100k in one of those last three, you are probably doing a lot better.
Additionally you have to divide that income by how many you are supporting.
Just you-- sweet!
Add a spouse-- still okay, but much less for you
Add kids one by one and incrementally you will feel poorer and poorer-- not to say you can't do it.
Point is, there are some living on 60k and saving and eating out on occasion, while some 100k earners are looking for a second job and just making ends meet, no savings, and almost at the poorhouse. How you live depends on the necessities and luxuries you require. |

For a family that falls square in middle class. Economists don't really use "upper middle class" for any measurable purpose. Most people just like calling themselves that. |

It depends where you are. If you are in the Northeast or California, 100K is middle class. Anywere else (South, Midwest) it is prob. upper middle class. |

It does not matter if you have a $1,000,000.00 USD salary.
If you spend 100% of your money then you are as poor as the guy making $10,000.00 USD.
If you invest at least $50,000.00 yearly then you are on the right track to become a millionaire.
If you don't save anything then you are on the right track to become broke. |

It depends on the location. It would be middle- to upper-middle class in parts of California; middle-class in the northeast; upper-class in parts of the south. |

Depends on what part of the country you're from, really.
In generally lower-class areas, 100K a year is some serious cash, probably knocking you up to the 'upper-middle class' bracket. Most parts of the country see 100 Grand a year as the norm.. So, I'd say middle class.
Why are you so worried about money, anyway? It just makes people see you as a shallow person. |

Depends on where you live. My guess would be is that one the east or west coasts its middle class, elsewhere upper middle class. |
