Whether you’re considered middle class commonly depends on your income and in the U.S., an annual household income of $60,000 (often based on two salaries) is right in the middle, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.Some economists use a definition starting at about 50 percent above the poverty level for a family of four ($35,000) and topping out at six figures of annual income ($100,000), adjusting for inflation over time.
