How Much Virginia Households Make Per Year: New Census Report

McLEAN, VA — For those who can never stop comparing, the Census released an early Christmas gift. The 2013-2017 American Community Survey issued by the Census last week disclosed a mountain of data, including how much household income is reported in each Maryland community. While household incomes in neighboring Maryland lead the nation overall, Virginia fared well, ranking eighth for the highest income among all 50 states.

Cost of living aside, Virginia appears to be better off than much of the country. The statewide median household income is $68,766, far surpassing the nationwide median of $57,652. That was an increase compared to the previous period, when households brought home $63.636.

You can see the list of the top 175 communities' median household incomes below. Great Falls topped the list of towns and census designated places with a median household income of $230,450. But many northern Virginia communities rank high on the list below.
