Census ACS 5-Year · 393 metros
Richest US Metros by Median Household Income
The richest US metro areas concentrate professional workers in technology, finance, defense, and biotech. The Washington DC, San Francisco, and San Jose metros routinely top the list, with median household incomes exceeding $100,000. These metros combine high educational attainment, knowledge-economy jobs, and elevated housing costs that filter for higher-income residents. Metro-level income data captures the full regional economy more accurately than city-only data, including the wealthy suburbs that drive much of metro-area prosperity.
