$250k HHI: minimum income level for “comfortable” I.e, what is generally considered a middle class life. Below this would involve strict budgeting/careful decision making and trade-offs.

$400k HHI: entry-level to “upper middle class” life, middle class life with room to build, financially comfortable with less worry.

$1mm HHI: entry-level “rich”. Renting (but not owning) a nice house in the Hamptons.

MMC, not UMC? Especially when you consider the boroughs, $250k HHI is exactly MMC. The problem is that you probably are thinking about it in terms of rent in a Manhattan luxury building, private schools, etc. but this has absolutely nothing to do with MMC life in NYC. MMC in NYC doesn't live there and doesn't send kids to private schools.

These numbers might work for B&T trash but definitely not anywhere in MFH
