The research\u00a0survey, which was carried out in September 2018, found that 76% of respondents think an annual income of $10,000 constitutes being poor, but the label gets shaken off once yearly earnings hit $30,000 with half of the population saying someone in this income category is neither rich nor poor.<\/p>\n
Half of the surveyed population (50%) believes someone on $30,000 a year is \u201cneither rich nor poor\u201d, while one in three (32%) still consider them poor, however, and only 6% think that they are rich.<\/p>\n
The level of income at which most Americans begin to consider someone rich clearly rests between $90,000-$100,000 dollars. People are divided on whether a person on $90,000 a year is \u201cneither rich nor poor\u201d (46%) or \u201crich\u201d (44%).<\/p>\n
At $100,000 opinion has tipped much more strongly towards \u201crich\u201d at 56%, with only one in three (34%) believing someone with an income this high to be \u201cneither rich nor poor\u201d.<\/p>\n
Poor or rich?<\/h1>\n
The YouGov Poll<\/a> also asked whether Americans considered themselves to be rich or poor.<\/p>\n Overall, the majority (64%) think they are neither. One in four Americans (25%) believe themselves to be poor, whilst just 5% think themselves rich. (A final 6% don\u2019t know).<\/p>\n Click here to read<\/a> on how the world wealth is being distributed.<\/p>\n
