Wall Street pays dividends for the New York metropolitan area, which dominates the list of 50 wealthiest zip codes in the northeastern U.S. compiled by Bloomberg.
New York area wealth represents about a quarter of the top 1 percent households nationwide but New York City wealth flows into surrounding zip codes to take the vast majority of the top 50 richest zip codes in the Northeast. The no. 1 richest zip code in the U.S. overall, however, is in Florida, not the Northeast.
What follows are the top zip codes in each of the nine Northeastern states, ranked from smallest average adjusted gross income to largest.
