I couldn't get link to work but I think you are looking at house hold. I looked up individual and it was 35.

Living with someone, roommate or partner, who you wouldn’t live with if you could afford the cheap solo life shouldn’t be a survival requirement.

I think you’re looking at stats for per capita income. I can’t find official data for individual income.

Thanks for providing this link. Looks like the actual number is likely a little higher than the ~40,000 shown by the graph, as these numbers include anyone 14+.
