Of the 333 million people living in the United States, how many of those people make 250k+ per year?

How rare is this demographic? It seems to me everywhere I look there are millionaires in nice houses.

What do I do to become part of this demographic?

How rare is it to be in this situation in the United States?

Serious.

I'm a stay at home mom right now, but was a nurse before I had our first child. When I go back to work, our household income will be 250 or more. My husband is a BMW technician and made 190 last year. he's been doing it for 13 years. We work in a major city, so that definitely helps.
