WASHINGTON – Want to make some serious dough?
D.C. ranks third on a new list of the best cities to get rich.
CreditDonkey.com, a website that provides easy-to-understand financial tips and deals, considered three factors when creating the list:
- Percentage of households making at least $150,000 per year
- How quickly the urban economy is growing
- Number of patents granted in 2011
D.C. finished behind San Jose and Boston. Rounding out the top 10 spots were Austin, Minneapolis, New York, Seattle, San Francisco, Houston and Raleigh.
