upper-middle class

Persons with a graduate degree, PhD, or professional degree, a household income of over $65k and more than $250k in net worth. This group is also often divided into the professional class and managerial class, as most persons in this group tend to be either professionals such as economists, political scientists, engineers, and post-secondary educators, or hold managerial positions in the corporate world. The division is made since persons belonging to the professional upper-middle class tend to be more liberal in their political beliefs and have more chic-urban tastes. Persons belonging to the managerial upper-middle class, on the other hand, tend to be more conservative in their political beliefs as well as their taste preferences.
