Is 80 accuracy good in chess?

My accuracy in the last 30 days or so is around 72%. I would say anything above 80 on a game that goes deep is pretty good for me! Sometimes I get games as high as 90s - but typically it would be short games where an opponent blunders a piece and I'm able to pounce and put them in a bad spot.
