Richest US Counties by Median Household Income

The richest counties in America cluster around major employment hubs, especially the Washington DC suburbs (Loudoun, Fairfax, Howard), Silicon Valley (Santa Clara, San Mateo), and outer suburbs of New York City (Nassau, Somerset, Morris). Median household incomes in the wealthiest counties routinely exceed $130,000, more than double the national median. These communities share common attributes: high educational attainment, concentrations of professional and knowledge-economy workers, excellent public schools, and extreme housing costs that act as a filter for the already-affluent. Understanding where America's highest incomes are concentrated illuminates regional economic disparities and helps explain migration patterns of professional workers.

Methodology

Rankings are based on American Community Survey (ACS) 2023 5-Year estimates from the US Census Bureau. All 50 states and the District of Columbia are included. The ACS surveys approximately 3.5 million households annually and provides detailed demographic, social, economic, and housing data. 5-Year estimates offer the most reliable data for state-level comparisons by averaging responses over a 60-month period. Percentages may not sum to 100% due to rounding.
