To be honest I wouldn't really know as it's just me, my wife and a baby. I'm just saying if you go out once per week to a restaurant or do take out, that could get really pricey. I'm sure as a family grows larger they start to cut that stuff out more and more because it becomes so costly.
Also where I live you need a minimum of 150k-175k household income to live comfortably. If you're only making 50k a year household here your poverty level. I'm sure that's a totally different dynamic in the midwest or something. We get raped in property/school taxes over here
