The average American household is now a millionaire, according to the Federal Reserve
To be precise, the mean net worth of an American household, adjusted for inflation, was $1.06 million in 2022, according to the Federal Reserve's consumer finance survey.In comparison, in 2019 the mean net worth of an average household was $868,000, marking a 23% jump.
Even when looking at the median—another measure of the average, which represents the midpoint in the ranking and is less likely to be skewed by exceptionally high or low numbers—the typical American household was worth $192,900.
Although that figure is less exciting for aspirational workers, it still represents an impressive after-inflation gain of 37% over three years.
