And by no one, we really mean you because there's always someone richer than you.

How do you quantify richer than you? We looked at one simple criterion:

Which neighborhoods have the highest median income?

Using census and extrapolated BLS data, we ranked every neighborhood based on income levels.

We ranked every neighborhood in Cincinnati by median income from highest to lowest. The neighborhood with the highest median income, California, was named the richest neighborhood in Cincinnati.

The poorest neighborhood? That would be South Cumminsville.
