I'm a university teacher in Chengdu, working 4 days a week (18 hours total) and teaching freshmen academic writing. The subway commute is convenient and cheap. With an annual salary of $30,000, I'm in the upper middle class in China. I rent a downtown three-bedroom apartment for $278/month, well-equipped with a projector and various streaming services, making it comfortable to live in.
