The other thread was MSA - not county. And it was per capita, not household (which means more affluent singles in FFC, and more two income HHs in counties on your list). And some counties on your list have a population that is less than the city of Bridgeport.

Statistics can always be skewed to conform to an agenda.

Can't say I'm surprised about FFC. I am surprised that Hartford ranked so high though.

Hm, so I guess this means that a typical two-income household in Fairfield county, probably makes around $157,000. Well, lets take a look at where this puts us in the national pecking order, shall we?
