Distribution of Wealth in SD County

[Eugene]

[quote]Household incomes in SD County:

$00 to 45K = low income
$45K to 100K = lower MC income
$100K to 200K = MC income
$200K to 350K = upper MC income
wealth = non RE and non-retirement assets of $1.5M or more
[/quote]

Based on this definition, there is exactly one upper MC zip code (i.e. a zip code where at least half of all population is upper MC) in the entire county, and that is 92067, Rancho Santa Fe.

If I massage the data a little bit, by excluding everyone who lives in apartments and condos, for example, I can get Del Mar, Solana Beach and Carmel Valley into that category.

I think that you’re seriously overestimating the average wealth/income of San Diegans.

Or maybe we have different concepts of “lower MC/upper MC”. It seems that, in your worldview, the 60th percentile is “lower MC” and even the 90th percentile is still “middle class”.

Oh, oops, I mean house hold income of $150k/yr :-). 2 RN couple would get you there. If you get your RN at 20, have 5 years of experience, you should be making around $75k/yr., not counting overtime.

BTW, bearishgurl, you can go here: http://profilewarehouse.sandag.org/ to get demographic info about any zip code you want.

That’s better. Now you’re describing 300 people/year (30 nurses per community college, times 5 community colleges; and, say, 150 more graduating from Kaplan & such, saddled with 50k of student debt.) So, almost one percent of the population. By the way, it’s very hard to get your RN at 20, because just the RN program at, say, Mira Costa, is 4 semesters long, and there’s a number of prerequisites – anatomy, physiology, etc. Let’s make it “get your RN at 22, have 5 years of experience, making $60k/year ($30/hour, 2000 hours/year)” – 120k/year at 27.
