Re: Need info moving to usa
This article from 2015 said around 20% earn over $100k. It also explains quite well how far $100k may or may not stretch to meet your expectations.
Why Is a $100,000 Income No Big Deal Anymore? | Bankrate.com
Not sure where you got your 5% figure from.

Regardless, taking in the comments from earlier the question for OP would be, not is it "easy" on $75,000 per year, as I agree the other posters that with a family of 5 and one income that would be difficult - but the question would be, is that salary a substantial upgrade over what the family makes now, and would it make life "easier" (rather than "easy") than their current circumstances in the UK?

Seems we need to rename this thread to 'Donald Trumps America is closed to outsiders!'

It came from a series of economic and government statistics. Please note that in the article you linked, the statistic cited by the author was for "households" and not "individuals," I was referring to the latter. The author then lazily conflated the two as though "household income" and "individual income" were the same thing (I'm not mentioning that to be confrontational to you - but my pet peeve these days is sloppy journalism of which currently seems to be the norm rather than the exception).

The other thing is maybe the OP will get some life experiences which would otherwise not be available. How much are those life experiences worth?

One suggestion is for your husband to market his skills, that means showing people in the states his workmanship, not just pictures of it, videos as well, we live in a high media consuming world now. Some videos on Youtube get over 100,000 views in one day, this is just one suggestion. As for kids moving and debt, it all depends on who he impresses because most of it maybe taken care of based on supply and demand.
My husband is looking to get a job is USA as greenkeeper. He has a huge amount of experience working in a top Scottish golf course and has the experiance. What i want to know is how easy is it to move to USA with 3 children? We have debt and also wonder if this would affect us being accepted into america. I have no clue and all the help or point in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
