Most billionaires claim residence in the MSA's like NYC, LA, SF, Miami, Boston, DC and Dallas. Wealth disparity is far greater I would imagine compared to most anywhere in rural or deep south America both logically plus my observations from all my travels.

I refer you to the chart I posted to you. Then I suggest you check wiki to see what states have the highest child mortality rates, shortest life spans, least amount of literacy, lowest per capita income etc. Now if those states also have very well off people who live a standard US lifespan, who are very literate and experience a child mortality rate that is typical for the US, the disparity between them and the poorest in those states will be significant.

Just in Florida FYI the incredible wealth disparity from third world to age Gilded Age elites you'd see within a matter of blocks in very blue Miami or West Palm Beach would stun most Americans. You just don't see this in most of the country Ted..

Anecdotal, John.
