it seems likely that certain factors are at work here:

1. as hunters, Taiyang and both wives should have been well off, with both good income and death benefits(which Taiyang may have collected on both of them for the girls, even if one still lives somewhere)

2. as hunters, Taiyang and his team might actually be able to hunt/scavenge for food they need, cutting their day to day expenses.

3. as hunters and progeny of dead hunters, they may get lots of promotions/free stuff/sponsoring

4. Yang could have sugar daddy's/a boyfriend... or be a really good scavenger/mechanic, or just have misused whatever fabricated Crescent Rose(or at least machined it's parts) to build Bumblebee.

Long story short, they could be rich, but upper Middle-class or even lower middle class could fit, although if they are lower middle they would be more highly valued like a fire fighter(volunteer but trained).
