When you take into consideration the median household income for both countries, the difference isn't as great as it sounds:

- US: ~$70,000 (source: https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2022/demo/p60-27...)

- UK: ~32,000 (source: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/personal...)
