1. Cincinnati has the worst inequality in Ohio, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Based on the Gini coefficient, a 0 to 1 measure of income inequality where 0 represents perfect equality and 1 represents the highest level of inequality, Cincinnati had a score of 0.541, the highest of any city in Ohio (the statewide Gini score is 0.465). In Cincinnati, the top 20 percent of households by earnings account for nearly 57 percent of all income in the area, while the bottom 20 percent of households account for just 2.2 percent of earnings.
