This may be common knowledge, but it was a surprise to me …
Based on the 2009 census data (latest available), just under 4% of U.S. households have income greater than $200,000.
Below are the 20 states with the highest proportion of households with incomes greater than $200,000 … led by DC, Connecticut, New Jersey and Maryland (a suburb of DC).
The interesting part:
15 of the states (or 16 depending on how you count Colorado) are Blue- Democratic states
… only 3 are Red-Republican states
… 2 are Purple-Swing states.
Hmmm.
