Poverty line in New York City for two adults/two children is $43,890. https://robinhood.org/news/annual-poverty-tracker-report-by-robin-hood-and-columbia-finds-nyc-poverty-increased-from-18-percent-to-23-percent-in-2022-a-jump-from-1-5-to-2-million-new-yorkers-living-in-poverty/ Edit: also keep in mind that New Yorkers often don’t need a car. That’s a huge yearly spending reduction.
