$36.64 definitely sounds closer to an actual living wage for my city, too.

I'm curious, did you go to livingwage.mit.edu? Their page for my city only lists a single amount for a living/poverty/minimum wage for one adult woth no kids.

I did go to that website. Both the pages I looked at had multiple columns for different numbers of adults and children.
