This term refers to a demographic group but it's definition differs from country to country.In the US this group includes the vast majority of Americans,"( All Americans not on welfare or members of a tiny upper class).In Western Europe this group is essentially made up of white collar and professional individuals.The shrinking middle class in the US has resulted primarily from falling employment amongst blue collar workers who are considered working class in other countries but middle class in the US.
Middle class jobs are disappearing from the US

Enemy of liberals and democrats: not poor enough to depend entirely on the government, not rich enough to fund their campaigns; threat to the implementation of Socialism and economic slavery.
The only way to buy votes from the poor is to reward their failure with money stripped from the paychecks of the Middle Class.

A living standard some 75% of Americans think they’re at, but it’s a relevant term. In terms of income, some are college educated people with professional white-collar jobs that are single that live in simple one bedroom apartments, but many tradesman that barely finished high school that have families live in a comfortable home in the suburbs, but can’t afford much more than a mortgage and enough food to eat. And you have union tradesmen making more money than accountants and engineers, but most of them don’t live at the same level because of their mentality. In reality, the middle class are college-educated, work white-collar occupations above a secretary or bank clerk, but not physicians or attorney’s, live in a tract home in the suburbs, two cars usually at least one an SUV or Minivan, have a pedigree dog, favorite restaurants are Starbucks, Red Robin, or Chili’s, their kids are highly monitored and in at least one extracuricular activity, their church is usually anything but Roman Catholic, Hardshell Baptist, or Pentecostal, and vacations at least once a year, usually places like Disney World. Many living in mountain climates enjoy skiing or snowboarding in their leisure time and coastal climates the beach.
They are a middle class family. He’s a project manager and his wife a school teacher. Their kids all get good grades and enrolled in soccer. Their home is a two story 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath with a playroom and over 3,000 square feet.
The biggest class of fucking morons (In UK anyway) well known for sitting on 'chav' websites playing the role of keyboard hereos. Look down and are jealous of the working-class. Most of them sniff coke and act as if butter wouldn't melt in their mouth, most of the time it's these who get found out for child abusing and running child abusing websites. Always give birth to tax dodging weedy students.
middle-class - The elite class of cocks

Well-to-do progressive white or white-presenting individuals who consistently are drawn to leftist schelling points.
The college sophomore holding the communist protest sign is a member of the oven middle class.

The Upper Middle Class doesn't start at $60,000 household income. Unless you live in Kansas or South Dakota, $60k per household doesn't get you very far in the typical metro area where most Americans live today. $60k per family is squarely middle class.
The upper middle class is better described as the Professional or Managerial Class, and consists of mostly white collared professionals or successful small business owners. Typical professions in the upper middle class are biglaw lawyers, physicians, dentists, accountants, consultants, school principals, and engineers with managerial roles. Many have advanced degrees beyond college.
They tend to live in cities during their 20s, marry in their late 20s or early 30s, and move to wealthy suburbs with good school districts when the kids come. The political affiliations of the upper middle class vary greatly with age and region in the country. Among the upper middle class, there is often a strong emphasis on education and getting into the right college for their children, to the point of obsession (see helicopter parents).
Household incomes vary from $100k to $500k. Most upper middle class families still depend on salary and their day job to sustain their lifestyle (hence they are not Upper Class which relies more on investment & rent income). The upper middle class are the heaviest taxed group in America (whereas those in the upper class have more of their income in capital gains, which has a lower tax rate).
In America, the poor thinks they are in the middle class and the middle class thinks they're in the upper middle class, while the upper middle class thinks they're typical middle class Americans.
