Editor's note: The data used in this analysis was supplied by the U.S. Census' five-year American Community Survey. The ACS includes rough estimates of income data at the municipal level, and actual values may be slightly different. Cities where the margin of error was more than 10% were eliminated.

The Courier Journal analyzed data from the American Community Survey, a data source from the U.S. Census, and found the wealthiest cities in Kentucky based on the median household income.

While many cities boast a median income of more than $50,000, only the top few break into the $100,000 range, according to the data.
