Windfall releases data on what it takes to be in the top 1% of every state
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Windfall used its 2020 consumer financial database to determine the net worth required to rank in the top 1% of each state. The analysis used population estimates from the 2019 U.S. Census Bureau and net worth estimates from Windfall's wealth database of more than 80 million households.
For each state, the minimum net worth required to qualify in the top 1% for that state is included, along with the median net worth of all homeowners with a primary residence in that state, and total homeowners with a net worth of $1 million or more. Net worth represents an individual's assets like homes, cars, and investments, less their liabilities like mortgage and other debt.
Windfall visualized the net worth required to qualify for each state and other related statistics in an interactive map and table. Reach out to the media contact below for codes you can use to embed these visualizations in your own story.
