Really depends on what you call an "upper-class" quality of life. A penthouse with a view of the park and the finest dining isn't affordable on 250K. A house in a great neighborhood (unless you insist on sticking to Manhattan), private school for the kids and not worrying about most financial decisions is quite affordable on 250K even in NYC.
