Of the more than 119 million households in the U.S., about 6 million, or five percent, of them include a millionaire, according to a new report. But where do they live?
The Global Wealth Monitor survey, produced by Phoenix Marketing International, recently ranked each state in order of how many millionaire households they have per capita. The top of the list may not be what many would expect.
Maryland remains at number one for a second year, with 7.7 percent of its households attaining millionaire status. New Jersey was a close second, with 7.49 percent, followed by third place Connecticut at 7.32 percent.
- Maryland 7.7% of households

The state with the fewest millionaire households per capita is Mississippi, which had about 3.63 percent, just edging below Arkansas, Idaho, West Virginia and Kentucky.
