See the 25 Richest Cities in Missouri Including a New Number One

There are a lot of ways to define "wealth", but for the sake of simplicity, let's focus on how much the average family makes in each Missouri city and town. The 25 richest seem to be rolling in the dough and there's a new number one at the top of the list.

I asked the raw database at USA.com to rank the 25 richest Missouri cities for me. This is purely based on per capita income which is (in my opinion) an interesting way to look at this so that smaller towns with less population aren't disregarded.

The number one richest place based on per capita income is Loch Lloyd, a new neighborhood in Missouri that is now home to many sports celebrities including Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, golf legend Tom Watson among other. Truthfully, I wonder if $129,621 really reflects the wealth in Loch Lloyd. I'm betting the part time worker at the grocery store there likely makes more than that in tips.
