Yeah I don't get it, You'd think San Mateo county (Silicon Valley) would be on the list.

Welfare luxury condos. Now every poor sucker is going to move. Thanks.

Truth is if you don't make $500,00 you are poor here.

Watch HGTV. You will shit yourself. $300,00 out west will buy you a new home with 3,000 sq feet.

You got a spare $40k? This three story home in Detroit has four bedrooms and eight bathrooms, all for $39,300.

Getting off and on the island is a nightmare and the drivers suck. Plus the cost of the tolls is a racket. Nova is so much better.

Maybe they change the metric from house hold income to household net worth.

There are only two counties on Long Island, Nassau and Suffolk. So I guess you meant, "Stafford County is a county more wealthy than EITHER county on Long Island!" And even that is some tortured syntax.

@Long Island sucks - no argument there LoLz

@just say - well, if you want to get all anal about internet syntax, I actually was referring to ALL FOUR COUNTIES of Long Island hince the unusual choice of words, since saying "Long Island" alone usually refers to just Nassau and Suffolk..............
@WTF - cause yr giving them shitty service, dude. In all honesty, most ppl around here tip 20% instead of 15 just cause we are too lazy to do the math - at least that's how I roll LoLz

Long Island is absolutely beautiful geographically, especially in the summer. Some of the best beaches around, fishing out of Montauk, it's great.

The only thing that makes Long Island suck is New Yorkers. If they could round up every one of those obnoxious socialist motherfuckers and take them 200 miles out to sea and dump them, then the island could become a world class resort.

I've never liked calling these the richest counties in America, since you can make a very nice income and have little actual wealth.

I've lived in the top three counties on this list, in reverse order. They are all very nice places, with fairly small shithole sections.
