How to get financial aid as upper-middle class

So while you might live in a state where 150K house are the norm and so are 40K salaries, someone else might live in an area where 900K houses are the norm and so are 200K salaries ( in the end after expenses both families might have the same disposable income).

How many states or areas have $200k per year as the norm for pay levels?

The median household income in Irvine is a little less than half of that, though that is high by national standards.
