We are talking about the threshold for being exempt from one of the major victories of the workers rights movement. Thrme bar for such an exemptions should be high.

$27/hour comes to about $56,160 a year

According to HUD [0], that qualifies and individual as "very low income" in San Francisco, CA (threshhold $65,250)

For California overall, you would merely be "low income" (threshhold $56,450)

In Houston Texas, that would be "low income" for a family of 2. (Threshhold 56,700)
