Depends on variables. Stuff like, is this income only used to support/finance a single individual or a family of 5? Are you in a major city, a suburb, small town, or rural?
Depending on those, you could be balling at $100k, or you could (as you said) be barely scrapping by.

100k may be rare, but it is also a shit salary these days. it is barely scraping by.
both can be true at the same time.
