Yep, apparently Darien is #1 if you go by median household income

Darien has a median household income of $232,523.

Right. It wouldn't surprise me if the highest mean would be Greenwich because of all the hedge fund folks, but the median is a much more useful measure.

I wouldn’t throw westport in there. Westport would be more second tier along with Weston. Then you would have tier 3 with ridgefield, wilton, and Fairfield.

Westport has much more extreme wealth than Weston. The demographics may say Weston has a similar income, but that’s because it’s a smaller, more homogenous town. Westport is considerably more expensive and has far more homes in the 8 figure range.

Average single family sales price: $2.2M

Weston: $881k

Westport is also double the price per square foot. Not even close.

I get your point. I guess I just assumed most of that 8 figure range is in certain enclaves of Westport.
