How Many Millionaires Live in Milford?

Have you ever wondered how Milford residents' wealth stacked up to that of residents in other towns?

A new searchable database in the Boston Business Journal, says there are 12 residents that reported earning at least $1 million last year.

Greater Boston’s suburbs to the west are among the state’s wealthiest, the Boston Business Journal reported, citing state tax data on millionaire filers in 2010. Weston tops the list with a millionaire filer for every 27 residents. 

Milford had 12 millionaire filers, giving the town a rank of 175th out of 351 cities and towns.

Near to us, Holliston's number of millionaire filers is ranked 66th, with one millionaire filer per every 467 residents. 

There are some caveats that the Boston Business Journal noted, however. The state's millionaires include small business owners filing as S-Corporations, filers reporting one-time events such as the sale of a business or property; and joint filers, including two-income households with total combined earnings that exceed $1 million.
