Just checked out this study on Florida's wealthiest suburbs and some of the numbers are wild. Turns out Miami-Fort Lauderdale area completely dominates - like 12 out of the top 24 richest areas in Florida are clustered there. Palm Beach is still the king with average household income hitting $356k and median home values around $10.2M. That's insane.

The interesting part is how concentrated wealth really is. After Palm Beach and Pinecrest (which averages $312k household income), there's a pretty big drop-off. Lake Butler near Orlando pops up as #3 with $289k average income, but then Parkland and Coral Gables follow in the $200k+ range. Looks like if you're looking at the richest areas in Florida, you're basically looking at Miami suburbs and a few scattered spots in Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa.

The whole list is pretty revealing though - even the #24 spot (Lake Mary) still has average household income around $143k. Shows just how much money is concentrated in these specific neighborhoods. Most of these places have typical home values between $500k-$1M, except for the super premium areas like Palm Beach which is on another level entirely.
