It’s not middle income, but, insofar as income correlates with economic class, its quite consistent (if, as here, it is labor income) with middle class (petit bourgeois), since the worker with that income likely has substantial capital investment and income (or at least accumulation if they aren’t realizing income), but is not independent of renting their labor or applying it to that capital for support.
Middle income isn’t middle class, and people at that income level are generally firmly in the working class.
