N2
〜といったところだ
Meaning
An expression that modestly indicates an approximate number or an upper limit, meaning "roughly about 〜" or "at most around 〜." It softly estimates a quantity or degree as a range that is not very large. It carries the speaker's assessment that "even at most, it is only this much." Besides words expressing numbers, it also attaches to words expressing states.
Examples

- 給料は手取りで二十万円といったところだ。 My take-home pay comes to about 200,000 yen.
- 出来は、まあまあといったところだ。 The result is so-so at best.
