Multiple Suburbs Across US Ranked Among 50 Wealthiest in 2025

The GoBankingRates 2025 rankings of America’s 50 wealthiest suburbs highlight several affluent communities across the country, emphasizing high household incomes and rising home values. Scarsdale, New York, secured the top spot for the second consecutive year with a mean household income exceeding $600,000 and home values over $1.2 million, while Rye, also in Westchester County, ranked second with a mean income of $421,259 and average home values nearing $1.9 million. New York suburbs like Garden City and Dix Hills on Long Island, along with multiple wealthy New Jersey suburbs such as Tenafly, Summit, Westfield, Ridgewood, and Princeton, reflect a broader regional trend driven by proximity to major metro areas and strong school systems. Washington state features two notable wealthy suburbs, Mercer Island and Sammamish, with Mercer Island ranking 29th nationally, known for its high incomes, multimillion-dollar homes, and top-tier schools. These rankings focus on suburbs with at least 5,000 households within metropolitan areas, using average household income as the primary criterion and incorporating home values for context. Collectively, the data illustrate ongoing suburban gentrification and sustained economic prosperity concentrated in select American metro-adjacent communities.
