- I would say that most people in my neighborhood would probably identify as middle class using concepts from Gallup’s article because middle class is the category most Americans choose when they describe themselves, even without strict definitions from Gallup scientists. Since I live in a White, Metro-North area with reasonable income levels and access to good schools and jobs, it makes sense that people here would see themselves as middle class or upper-middle class, not lower or working class. I’m not surprised by that because these communities tend to have higher education levels and stable jobs, which are factors people use to place themselves higher on the social class scale. I think it’s an accurate representation because most of the families around here fit that profile and likely think of themselves that way, even though “social class” can feel vague.
