Just to get a glance at how the other half lives. This list will make my search easier. Thank you! It is somewhat disappointing that Iowa doesn't have any cities on the list. :) Kidding.

As an Alabama native (and post-college Mountain Brook resident), I have enjoyed perusing several of your lists, including the Birmingham article (which could not have been much more accurate, IMHO) and this one. I currently live in a neighborhood in Salt Lake City, UT that doesn't even come up in a site search of Higley 1000. Yet, I have read in recent years that our neighborhood is (or was at that time) among the 50 wealthiest neighborhoods in the country. Our neighborhood is Federal Heights, located inside Salt Lake City proper. My neighbors include several Fortune 500 CEO's, bank presidents and CEO's of several additional Fortune 1000 companies. I have read that those who are not familiar with our area will often dilute the neighborhood's incomes with the surrounding areas because of a shared (and expansive) zip code area. However, to the extent that there is a "blue blood" neighborhood in the state of Utah, it's my understanding that Federal Heights would be it. Has Federal Heights not shown up on your radar yet, or are some of our neighbors hanging on by a thread after the recent financial crisis? Thanks again for your work on a great site!

I personally have driven all of the neighborhoods that weren't gated and I agree that it is a lovely place. The reason why Boca doesn't have any neighborhoods in the top 100 has to do with the large number of retirees found in most of it's most elite places. If you looked further under "Neighborhood Summary by Metro Area," way down the list under West Palm Beach you would find the following neighborhoods #161 Boca Raton Bath & Tennis Club #179 Boca Grove #268 Boca Raton Polo Club-Le Lac #372 Woodfield Country Club #390 Woodfield Hunt Club #459 Boca Tierra-Les Jardins #680 Estancia Steve Higley Boca Raton is extremely well represented in the Higley 1000.
