The missing class

I just started reading a book that was printed about a decade ago with this title.
It was talking about the class that is above poverty but yet not middle class.
People who make to much to get government funding yet don't make enough to afford life.

The book put the missing class at 20k-40k, this was in 2007 and was not talking about Frum people. In around 2015 the Met Counsel on Jewish poverty said the worst income bracket for Frum people in NY is 60k-150k

What income would the Frum missing class fall in now?

I feel like I fit into that category.
We net 160k

I'm fascinated by this concept. Especially because as frum Jews I believe the majority of us falls into this bracket.

I'd guess the current frum missing class is between 140k-230k.
Depending how many kids they have.
