Hey it's twice minimum wage what are you complaining about ?

That's not a fair comparison. Median household income there is far above the minimum wage. The median household income there ($70k+ in a country town) is good living.

In this case, the median household income seems to be based on a median male income of about $40k and a median female income of about $30k. That's around the $25-$30 per hour mark or 3.5 times the minimum wage.

Besides, no-one's entitled to earn $X or more for the rest of your life just because they did in the past or because they're "aiming at rich."
