CNBC says the household income threshold to be in the 1% is $421,926. They also list each threshold by state.

If you look at the mean income of the 1%, it’s clear how far from the top the typical Delta pilot is. The mean income of the 1% nationwide is $1.32 million according to the article, so even a perpetually green-slipping 350A is still in the bottom half of the 1% unless they are married to a surgeon...or another 350 captain. Or possibly a plumber.
