^ That list is a good example of why the 5,000 people cut-off is a good idea.
About half of those fall under the threshold, with many containing fewer people than a typical census tract.
Dunes Acres, IN only has 234 people. What is that, like 75 households? Who cares?
Winnetka/Glencoe/Kenilworth are essentially the same place. And they're all right next to each other.
They should all just merge and call it "Wiglenworth", a town of about 25K rich people along the shore of lake michigan.
I think that would make it the largest contiguous clump of $500K+ average income housolds in the midwest. Maybe in the entire interior of the nation? (though maybe not with the rise of texas)
