Traditional Townhouses of Carlyle City Residences
According to new U.S. Census Bureau data as interpreted by CNNMoney, the suburbs have the highest concentration of wealthy people, more so than cities.
The wealthy tend to stay near major population centers, according to the study. For example, the region with the highest concentration of wealthy households in the nation is Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk, Conn., which is just north of New York City. Nearly 18 percent of residents there make more than $191,469 per year. In the nation, only 5 percent make that income.
The following are the 10 metros with the highest concentration of high-income households, as well as the percentage in each area where households are among the top 5 percent of U.S. incomes. (The study did not take into account the cost of living in these areas.)

Ronald Reagan National Airport
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (also called Reagan National Airport) is located in Arlington County Virginia in close proximity to the neighborhoods of Crystal City and Aurora Heights. Reagan National is a metro rail stop on both the Yellow and Blue lines. The runway is a short at Reagan National and it launches planes up over GW Parkway and at the Washington Monument, requiring a steep climb and a hard left on take off. Reagan National is open 24 hours a day 7 days a week, although many ticket counters and restaurants in the airport close during off-hours. Reagan National is located within the Commonwealth of Virginia, but it has a Washington DC address to identify the airport's location more easily for travelers.
Reagan National as seen from the Metro Station
The airport is most easily accessed from the George Washington Parkway. There are a good many condos and homes in the Crystal City area and they're all just a metro stop away from Reagan National. The take-off and approach to Reagan National is down the Potomac, so that area residents get very little noise or fly-over from the jets at Reagan National.
