Take into account purchasing power parity, and you will see that we are not as “wealthy” as these numbers indicate.

[Clemenza]

Ping!

[Tanniker Smith]

explains their governor.

[Argus]

They’re the only ones who can afford to pay the property taxes.

I remember once in the 60’s there was a section of Wichita Falls, Texas, that had more millionaires than anywhere else in the country.

[Pharmboy]

I’m RICH!! (Oh—wait a minute, mebbe not)

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

You HAVE to be a millionaire to pay the taxes there!

[toddlintown]

“New Jersey has the most millionaire households in the country”

There’s Sammy, Jimmy, Tony, Pauly, Alphonse, Guido, and a couple of other guys I might have missed.

[Anti-Bubba182]

With their taxes they need to be rich.

[G-Man 1]

Hey what about Linden, Elizbeth, Jersey City, Bayone,Newark.To name a few. Are these places why they call Jersey the garden state?

[RockinRight]

And yet, they still choose to live in New Jersey?

[GnuHere]

Is this title deceptive? It implies an absolute number yet talks only about percentages as far as I can tell.

I know areas of NJ are rich, but if I have a million $ and live in a state populated by one family, we will look really good statistic-wise....

?

[Senator Goldwater]

Not surprising, given all that developed coastline and proximity to two eastern major cities.

[RightWhale]

One in seventeen Alaskans is a millionaire. Thank you ARCO, BP, and of course, Mother Nature.

[Cacique]

What’s a million dollars? Soon it will cost that much to buy a loaf of bread. Believe me when I tell you that when Argentina had a gold peso it was money. Then inflation came, then hyperinflation. Paper money is worth exactly what it’s printed on.

Anthony Soprano declined comment.

If I had a seven figure income and lived in a state
(mis)named the Garden State, such a report would send shivers down my spine. Reports such as this do nothing except stimulate state government to raise taxes.

My guess Clemenza is that a lot of them are like Bryant et al - crooked politicians and those connected to the same, wheeling and dealing for government contracts.

At any rate, that idiot Corzine and his allies in Trenton are certain to make sure New Jersey will soon have a population structure broken down between super rich, poverty stricken working poor,masses of illegal invaders pulling in bucks in the hidden economy, and parasites in the government and school and law enforcement system, growing fat over the situation.
