Buenos Aires middle-class income threshold rises 2.5% monthly, outpacing inflation

A family in Buenos Aires now needs nearly $2.7 million (presumably Argentine pesos) monthly to be considered middle class, excluding rent. The September figure rose 2.5% month-over-month, exceeding the 1.8% inflation rate, indicating real income requirements are climbing faster than prices. This signals persistent cost-of-living pressures and potential social strain in Argentina.
