7. What Does it Mean if You Live in a Wealthy County?

People who live in wealthy counties are more likely to live longer and have higher education levels. Just because a county is rich, though, doesn't necessarily mean that its state is rich. Although Virginia has quite a few wealthy counties, the income levels in the other counties are lower than average, so Virginia is not at the top of the list of wealthiest states.
