What state has the highest income inequality?

Hint:  Think Hunger Games

 

 

 

Answer here.  It turns out that this was a trick question.  It was not any of Districts 1 through 50.  It is the Capitol, the District of Columbia.  By far.  Second place New York (district one) is not even close.

    DC isn't a state. Also, DC is the capital, the Capitol is a building.

    Reuters had an article on income inequality in Washington DC and the surrounding metroploitan area. It's a pretty good read.

    From here on I'm no longer calling it "income inequality".

    It's now "Socio-Economic Diversity".

    Thus: trick question.
