These people are making $80k at the very bottom, $120-200k is typical. Keep in mind they are paying 40% in income taxes alone (federal, state, social security, Medicare). When rent is $3-4k for a room you just sleep in, $700 for a smaller room is a nice savings.
80k minimum? I feel so Europoor.
Actually... 5 weeks of holiday, mostly free healthcare, good public transport, a mostly functioning democracy 🤔 Maybe not that poor. Still can't afford a house 😭
This is a California city. The rest of the US is not so nuts. And it's funny you mention socialist benefits. CA is the most socialist state and it's a giant shit hole for most people.
