Where do the ultra wealthy live?

Okay, so you’re wondering where all the really rich people hang out, huh? It’s a good question! I mean, who hasn’t wondered that, right? So, where do the ultra-wealthy live? Well, it’s not exactly a secret, but let me give you the lowdown based on some data I’ve seen.

So, get this:

Top Cities for Ultra-Wealthy (Where the big bucks REALLY live):

• New York, New York: Holy moly, New York! It’s got a whopping 744 ultra-wealthy individuals. Seven hundred and forty-four! I mean, that’s insane, right? You just know there are some crazy penthouse parties happening there. I’ve only visited once, and, like, even the air felt expensive, you know?

• Bay Area (San Francisco/Silicon Valley): Okay, so next up is the Bay Area – San Fran and Silicon Valley. No surprise there, right? Tech money! We’re talking 675 ultra-wealthy folks just kicking around, probably brainstorming the next big thing that’ll make us all obsolete… or, you know, at least change our phone habits AGAIN. I bet you could trip and fall into a multi-million dollar deal walking down the street. (Disclaimer: please don’t actually try this.)

• Los Angeles: And then we have LA, the City of Angels… and apparently, a whole lot of ultra-rich angels. About 496 of ’em, according to the data! Which… yeah, makes sense. Movies, music, that whole entertainment industry…it makes sense money piles up out there. I always imagine them driving around in convertibles, sunglasses on, just, like, being rich. Probably not far off!

So, yeah. Those are the big three. Of course, wealth is spread out all over, but those three cities? They’re like the VIP lounges for the ultra-wealthy. Maybe someday I’ll be joining them… maybe. A girl can dream, right?
