Households in Philadelphia have a median annual income of $46,116 (datausa). This is much lesser than the median annual income of $61,937 across the United States (datausa). I would consider this the “middle class” cause the people I know do not make that much a year. The people who make that much income or more a year are the ones who have an actual job which pays a lot. Rich is the ones who make that amount and higher, and the poor is the ones who make less than $25,000. Most of us make lesser than that a year.
