Thankfully the average American worker doesn't live in Hong Kong and feel like they need to drive!

While the average American worker doesn't live in Hong Kong, they do drive.

Either way, an American worker's salary is a good indication of how unafordable this spot is

How? I think the average income of someone who lives in the area of the parking spot would be a much better gauge, but this is probably just a pricey parking spot in an already very pricy area of a very pricey metro. It has no connection to the average person in any place on Earth.
