California, Florida, New York, and Texas are the states that added the most billionaires since 2015.
In fact, Florida’s billionaire count more than doubled in a decade, driven by tax perks, migration, and business-friendly policies. The billionaire map of America looks very different today than it did a decade ago.
New faces and shifting fortunes have reshaped where the country’s wealthiest residents call home, and some states have vaulted ahead in the billionaire rankings as seen in the infographic above.
The data for this map comes from two related Forbes sources. Their 2016 billionaire breakdown (which used net worth figures as of November, 2015), and their Real-Time Billionaires List, accessed July, 2025.
