GINI Index By County
About GINI Index By County ....
Relatively poor, rural counties upstate have the greatest equity in wealth. There isn't a lot of very wealthy people -- most people just make enough to get by in these counties. Steuben County, home of Watkins Glen and the southern Finger Lakes has the lowest GINI index of any county in New York.
