What income inequality looks like
I don’t have a good ranking of 2010 data, but according to
2000 census numbers, Orange County, CA was in the top two percent of richest
counties in America by median household income (61st out 3145).
It also had the 3rd highest concentration inAmerica of households earning over $200,000 a year.
Yet in 2011, nearly 46 percent or Orange County students came from households poor enough to qualify for free or reduced price lunches.
