Because they’re calculating this by state, most states are probably pretty understated for anyone living in a city. I know they’re pretty damn low for my state.
The data really should be split by urban and rural or even just smaller cities. I’ve lived in both Central New York (Syracuse) and NYC. We were not surviving and almost lost everything living on half of what the article suggested in one of the cheapest parts of NYC. We are rebuilding now, making only a touch more in CNY. We may even be able to afford a house in a couple years still making much less than 70k.
