Oh, I forgot to add that the cities with largest declines in millionaires are Orlando (42%) Las Vegas (38%), Phoenix (34%).
And why is Los Angeles so low in proportion when compared to like NYC, SF, DC ? LA MSA has only 4 million less people than NYC MSA population, but NYC's millionaire population is nearly triple LA's?
