Georgia’s minimum annual middle class income sits slightly less than the national average, according to a new survey. A recent study determined the minimum annual income needed for a family of four to be considered middle class in each state and Georgia came in at 31st on the list ranked with the highest income needed at the top. Fox5 Atlanta reports Consumer Affairs used a calculator provided by the Pew Research Center and an inflation calculator provided by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to come up with the numbers. In the Peach state, you would have to make at least $65 thousand 3 hundred and 64 dollars annually to be considered middle class. Hawaii tops the list, followed by D.C. and New York tied for second, New Jersey and New York are tied for third, and Massachusetts ranks 4th. Alabama came in at the bottom.
