Not to quibble, but this is household income, not necessarily a single individual's income.
In coastal cities, a two income household making 250k each is not absurd, and can certainly happen with two doctors, lawyers, or even software developers.
I'd much rather see metrics normalized by the local household income, which would be much more representative of relative inequality.
