This country seems to be obsessed with wealth. The Kardashians. Private jets. You get  the idea. But what about the state of Massachusetts as a whole? Well, we rank second in the nation for wealth, with only Connecticut being richer.

What About The Cities and Towns In Massachusetts? Who Takes The Cake?

Dover, Massachusetts does.

The richest town in Massachusetts is Dover. Situated along the southern banks of the Charles River, this city sits about 40 minutes from Boston and is a predominantly residential area. The local community is known for its nationally-ranked school systems, safe streets, and charming atmosphere – all of which help to keep the area family-friendly. With a per capita income of about $134k, and average home prices close to $1.6 Million, Dover is the best place in the state for a luxury lifestyle. -propertyclub.nyc

Towns such as Wayland, Carlisle, and Winchester make the list of the most wealthy as well.
