The fact that this is considered expensive there made me do a choking double take in the same way as learning that a huge house in the 70s used to cost like 20 grand.
the median income in China is around 26,800 Yuan (USD 3,855) per month. $82 USD (492yuan) is actually expensive. Since it is median income, you can expect a lot of people are not making that amount especially in the inland regions.
Comparing it to the States is not the good flex that people think it is.
