New Numbers Calculate Middle-Class Money

A new report can tell you if you’re still earning enough to be considered middle class. Finance site SmartAsset analyzed data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the Pew Research Center to determine the middle-class salary range in all 50 states. The national middle-class salary range is 49-thousand-271 dollars to 147-thousand-828 dollars. New Jersey has the most drastic difference between lower and upper-class incomes. In some states like Mississippi, a middle-class salary could be considered wealthy in comparison to other states.
