The US is home to more billionaires than any other country in the world, with 770 mega-wealthy individuals recorded in 2023, according to analysis by Henley & Partners. That's an increase of almost five percent on the 735 counted in 2022.

According to data from Forbes, 61 percent of America's billionaires reside in just four states: California (179), New York (130), Florida (92) and Texas (73).

Using Forbes' research, Visual Capitalist mapped the wealthiest billionaire in each of the country's states — except for Alaska, West Virginia and Delaware, which don't have any.

    While it can be hard to justify so many dollars in so few hands, it is also remarkable that some of these started with nothing and built things that have made America a better place. Of course a $billion is not what it used to be.

  3. O mundo é mesmo injusto, as pessoas acumulam riuezas e também a ganâcia, ignorando seu próximo necesitados de dinheiro e ajuda financeira. Quando os ricos serão dispertos para se tornarem generosos e compartilhar a suas riquezas com a maioria desafortunas.
