You’re incorrect; the data is public record.


But it's not the right data. The right data to really answer this question is not public record. We can all argue, but we have no way of knowing the answer. There are too many ways to structure asset ownership for any one metric to ever tell the full story.

Personally, I think Hihhland Park is the answer based on my own experiences in both Dallas and Houston areas. But I readily admit it's based on my own observations as an outsider observing such places with no actual knowledge of the residents overall collective financial picture.

Tontitown is an enclave of Springdale, only for rich people, so I think these stats should disqualify any "town" like that

Bentonville the answer for Arkansas

Brentwood is the answer for Tennessee

Mandeville is the answer for Louisiana

Ridgeland/Madison for Mississippi



screw the research, what I just posted is the answer for those states

Florida would be Naples

Vestavia Hills or similar would be Alabama

Kentucky would be some patch of ground inside Lexington

"dallas being the richer city than houston"

again, I'm guessing this is an assumption.

Wiki says that at least going by counties, Harris County is a few notches richer than Dallas County. Wiki's data is from 2010, so maybe Dallas has done something different in the last ~ decade?

Show us your data that show Dallas is richer than Houston.

6 of the richest top 20 billionaires that live in Texas, reside in Houston. Dallas has 4. Austin has 4 also.

Although of course, counting a city's billionaires is fool's errand. Especially in Texas. Most if not all of them likely use their Texan residence for tax domicile purposes and likely spend their willing time elsewhere. It's because Texas has certain great tax provisions, including no local or state income taxes.

That’s not correct for Key Biscayne.

It’s $167,000.

Housing on the island is insanely expensive.

Add Buckhead of Atlanta in that bunch, too. Buckhead has a higher household median income than even Beverly Hills.


Buckhead is not part of that list lol. Atlanta money, while adorable, goes to places like 30A and Hilton Head from what I’ve observed.

Also, Atlanta money does not compare to Beverly Hills. Full stop. Hop on Realtor and compare housing prices…
