US Places by Highest Average Family Income, 2019
The Census Bureau released it's 5-year estimates last week, which means all places regardless of population, so I always look to that data for average incomes for small towns because those are usually the wealthiest but are not in the 1-year release. Anyhow, here are the places that I found so far...
I chose to use average(mean) data vs median because median income data is capped at $249,999-after that it says "$250,000+", which doesnt work for me.
1. Nicasio has to be a fluke of some kind. It's a teeny tiny town in Marin and is usually not anywhere near this high--maybe George Lucas moved there? Who knows, in any event, it tops all places in the United States as far as Average Family Income for 2019.
Usually, rankings on this topic such as the one by Bloomberg includes only places with at least 5,000 population, but I am a geek and want to see all areas.
I bolded and colored red places that are $500,000+
