加州median income for 2009 - 薪水

看到自己薪水遠超過這個數字的人,應該要很高興才對.
單身的median income = 34,079

joint return median income = 65,025

不要再拿那種什麼二十萬一年的來比較了.這數字才是正常的中產階級.

The state provided yet more evidence Thursday of California paychecks
shrinking during the recession.

Statewide median income for all personal income tax returns filed for 2009
was $34,079, down 5.1 percent from $35,923 in 2008, according to statistics

The tax board said median income listed on California joint returns for 2009
was $65,025, down 5.7 percent from $68,981 in 2008.
