AFAIK, Arkansas has only had the Waltons, four of them (the fifth, I think, lives in Ft Worth). New York City had the most, at 46.

Of course NYC would have more billionaires then Arkansas; it only has 15 million more people, millions more jobs, a higher education standard etc...

I did miss it but my point is still valid about jobs and education in those areas.

The figures are meaningless without comparing them to the local cost of living. A millionaire in Omaha has a lot more money than a millionaire in NYC.
