Was Alice from Alice in Wonderland rich or poor?

Answer 1

Lewis Carroll didn't specify whether Alice was rich or poor, but he did leave us some clues.

Alice is unlikely to be poor, because when she is trapped in the corridor of doors she is concerned that she has been exchanged for a girl she knows called Mabel, who is obviously financially worse off than Alice. I must be Mabel after all, and I shall have to go and live in that poky little house, and have next to no toys to play with
It appears that she is at least middle class as, when she is musing about being told what to do by the animals she knows, we learn that she has a nanny to look after her. "Miss Alice! Come here directly, and get ready for your walk!" "Coming in a minute, nurse! But I've got to see that the mouse doesn't get out."
It is unlikely that she is rich, we know at least that she does not appear to have a title, but she does have aspirations to have one (albeit, not very optimistic ones.) `When I'm a Duchess,' she said to herself, (not in a very hopeful tone though), `I won't have any pepper in my kitchen at all.' Based on the available evidence, it seems that Alice is neither rich nor poor, but is comfortably off and is probably upper-middle class.
