Depends on your definition of affluent, but I'm thinking Chicago maybe? But I'm no expert on this topic.

By affluent i mean by being able to drive a German car and live in a 1 bedroom condo in a high rise building. I was thinking Chicago or Miami.

Chicago sounds good. What about Philly? Also sounds like a good option.

Seattle perhaps? Also, maybe some of the major cities of the South such as Houston, Dallas, and Atlanta provide easy living on that income.

Chicago hands down. You could get you a nice place overlooking downtown, go out every weekend, and enjoy a good meal out a few times a week.
