Williston Made The CNBC List -- March 10, 2017

Dickinson made the list, too.

Watford City, ND, did not make the list but I don't know if there was a population minimum (I could not find the answer  in the full report, but the smallest cities, it appeared, had populations of at least 9,000. Watford City, using the 2010 census, would not have met that threshold). 

The list: the fifteen wealthiest US cities.  

Link here.

Of the top 15 US cities, Williston, ND (Boomtown, USA) comes in #4.

Dickinson, ND, barely broke into the top 15, but beat out New York City.

Cities not on the list: Dallas or Houston; Odessa; Seattle; Chicago; Los Angeles; San Diego; Omaha; Williamsburg.

States not on the list: Washington State; Maryland; DC; Virginia; Nebraska; New Mexico; Middleburg (VA); Ohio; Illinois; Pennsylvania; New Jersey; North Carolia. Except for New York City, no city in New York state made it.

No city in southern California made the list.

Only one city in Texas made the list, falling short of two cities in North Dakota.

Four states had two cities on the list: North Dakota, Colorado, California, Florida.

Only four cities broke the $1 million mark.

Had they only listed the top 10, Williston would have made it.

Had they only listed the top 5, Williston would have made it.

This is not total wealth, this is annual income
