$119k is a slappin salary. Anyone who doesn’t realize that - teachers, engineers, software developers, accountants, whoever - has a skewed perception of norms from being surrounded by other upper-middle-class professionals.
Is that census data? If so it's almost 5 years out of date. Median wages have increased by almost 20% since then, so that $75K would be more like $90K (and closer to $100K if you're projecting forward several years from now like the teacher contract is).
