[Solved] Difference between rich and upper middle class?
« on: August 16, 2017, 09:50:25 PM »
What is the difference between the two classes?  I have my character's family owning two houses, an estate in Russia and then a manor gifted to them in the Ukraine.  I know some people say only wealthy people can own multiple houses, but my family owns multiple houses and we are not considered wealthy.  What's the wizarding world's take on this?

the way i have always sort of gauged it:

if everyone in the family could stop working and their lifestyle would see no change, go for rich
if they would see a change in their lifestyle if they quit working, upper middle

it's also a little dependent on the location of the houses, especially in russia, since things vary drastically across the country.

That's a good way of gauging it.

One house is in Russia, the other is in the Ukraine, more of a summer home.  Should I go for rich just in case?

summer houses are actually pretty common (and not very luxurious) so i'd say upper middle is probably alright, especially if one was inherited or something
