So, the rich are largely over 40 and don't watch that much television. Yep, that explains why Al Gore has launched a TV new channel to the under 30 crowd.....

Really does not do much to support the lefts claim that the tax cuts only benefited the rich.

I live in one of these zips, and it has more in common with parallel communities in London than with typical US suburbs.

Good....none in Texas or Nebraska. My two favorite places remain unsullied by Dem voting toads with money.

"...average net worth of $1.2 million..."

While the annual income given in the article is high, one can easily find average net worths in excess of this figure outside of these zips. These folks are apparently spending their wealth for today.

The cost of living in those zip codes is obviously higher as well.

The rich zip code in Atlanta has been named after world famous Freeper Buckhead.

"and average net worth of $1.2 million, about three times the national figure ($468,970), according to American Demographics’ analysis of ESRI data."

I NEVER would have thought the AVERAGE net worth was near a 1/2 Million!....( at least if you took out the top 1%......)Shows what AVERAGES are worth!

But this is the average, including every single household. No matter how rich the area, there are always a few people who are broke living there.

And in these rich areas, you're much more likely to find people with large negative net worths.

The richest zip codes are in Manhattans Upper east side, where you will also find the most liberal commie loving hypocrites in this country. I should know, I use to deliver to them. I use to deliver to two libs who lived right on 5th ave right next to central park who had the whole commie deal going, the Che pictures, the Marxist literature, the books, the hammer and sickle, meanwhile they were living like the worst "capitalist pigs" you could ever imagine. It`s all about guilt with these people, that`s the only rational explanation I can think of. Same with Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, they live up there too. They dictate to the masses socialism yet they blow enough cash on themselves to house and feed 1000 families.

This just means that the coasts are far more racist, segregated, and insular than "flyover country" where the rich co-exist in the same neighborhoods and zip codes with the middle class. Rich coasty Democrats like to live an incestuous lifestyle where they interact only with other rich Democrats in a mutual admiration society. Rich heartland Republicans like to live a more diverse cosmopolitan lifestyle embracing all cultures and payscales not just those of the sneering snobbery class.

The average is only one piece of information - on its own, it's not all that helpful. Knowing the shape of the distribution (Gaussian, bimodal, something else altogether...) is very important.

As do most demi-socialist fascist elites.

The oil company said the only place they could put the drilling rig was right on top of my gold mine so I don't get free oil.

The natural gas isn't all that useful either because it's not from the ground and I don't want to be plumbed directly into my furnace.

I assume they are 10021 and 10028. However the really off the wall commie lw moonbats live on the UWS, the lower east side and Chelsea.

True enough....that's the idea of "averages."
