Income isn't the only way to define "middle class". Education is another. Aspirations are as well. Last week's blog took a look at the evolution of the US middle class -- defined as a household earning between US$35,000 and US$100,000 a year.
I thought it would be interesting to see to which income decile a Mexican household with that income would fall. Here are the numbers for 2012, the most recent year available from INEGI.
Households earning US$32,037 a year were in the top 70% of the income distribution in Mexico. Household income of US$40,857 were in the top 80% while US$56,329 were in the top 90%. Household income for the top 10% averaged US$123,587.
