- 22% of people making $500K or more classify as upper middle income while 70% of those making $250-$499K classify as such.

And here I thought you were talking about something in Pennsylvania. Fascinating survey. Like you, I assume that a fair number of students don’t know their families household income.

My guess would be that children of the working class know these basic facts of their situation. When I asked my father the answer was a simple one - it was the check he got every other week multiplied by 26. That math might be less easy for those who are clipping coupons, drawing from this or that trust fund, and taking untaxed distributions by way of loans against property holdings. Probably the parents don’t even understand their exact position, and likely the kids don’t want to know it anyhow.

^^ Or the parents don’t want them to know (or disclose).
I know a precocious kid who as a young teen figured out that their parents’ income had to be publicly disclosed due to their jobs. So the kid went and looked it up. Of course, that wasn’t everything but it was probably the bulk of it.
