Title: America's Most Unequal Metros

Citation Type: Miscellaneous

Publication Year: 2014

Abstract: Income inequality is highest in Fairfield County, CT, San Francisco, New York, Boston, and Detroit. Overall, the most imbalanced U.S. metros tend to have worse housing affordability and slower job growth. But the trend is clear: the gap between the rich and poor has increased in 94 of the 100 largest metros since 1990 and has even accelerated in the past few years.
