Upper Middle Class

Upper middle class refers to a socioeconomic group with a higher level of income, education, and occupational status than the median population, but not at the very top wealthiest tier. Members typically have college or advanced degrees and hold professional, managerial, or specialized jobs. They often enjoy comfortable lifestyles, with greater financial stability, good savings, and the ability to afford quality housing, healthcare, and education. This group values education and upward mobility, maintaining a secure, often suburban, lifestyle. While not ultra-wealthy, they represent a well-off, stable segment contributing significantly to economic and cultural life.
