    42k in household income is apparently "middle class" according to the Council on Foreign Relations

      Bear in mind they are defining middle class as the middle of the income brackets. Whether a family can comfortably live on that income is no longer true in many cases. But I think it is interesting that the poorest Americans are underrepresented. There's probably a good reason for that, but I wouldn't rely on the Council on Foreign Relations to identify it.
