According to a new study, Parkland has been named one of the most affluent cities of its size in America.
Business insurance resource, AdvisorSmith, reports Parkland ranks number 16 among the top 25 cities between 30,000 and 50,000 residents in their published study “Most Affluent Small Cities in America.”
After categorizing small cities based on their population, their data shows the median household income in Parkland is $154,844, while the median income for the top 50 cities between 30,000 and 50,000 residents is $137,983.
California had the most cities in this population range, with 16 cities among the most affluent. Virginia had six, and Maryland had four.
What’s most exciting is that Parkland is the only Florida city on the list.
