Neat site. I could spend a lot of time looking this one over

Median income: $35k We are well below this, but when DH gets finished school and gets a job (hopefully) in three months, we will be above again.
Median house price: $52k
We are in an area where housing is still affordable. Unfortunately, our town is rural and what I would refer to as "dying" - not many jobs, very little public transportation, not the greatest schools (although I do feel pretty darn safe here). Population of 1200. It suits me just fine though

Oh yeah - the median thing explains it.

HEy check out this site - Net Worth IQ

I joined a while and forgot, just got an e-mail today.

Not exactly scientific, it compares your stats (income, net worth etc.) to other people on this site. Even compares by occupation. Interesting. I am not sure how representative the site is to real world population, that is why I say it isn't very scientific. Well that and who knows how accurate it is - do people exxagerate???? But interesting nonetheless.

I like it because my net worth blows everyone out of the water in my income and age range. However, that's just a real estate thing. Overall I am pretty average without real estate. Shucks. IT also ranks by state.

If your net worth is growing it is fun to track too. If it isn't growing, may be depressing.
