我反对前面几乎所有答案。 包括提问的，经济总量根本无法代表州的穷富啊，同样，一个物价高得地区和物价低的地区开工资差异也无法弥补地区差异。
例如加州开7-10万都无法和俄亥俄的5万比。我们这边全10分学区297平 (3200 sqft) 10年房+.55英亩的地才30万美元上下。你加州同样学区和地得200万线了吧？
此外州本身预算也是问题。 有些州GDP很高，然而万税后还是入不敷出，面临破产，你说这个州富有么？
那么我们从州和个人来看富有吧：
州财政情况（负债率越低的州说明遇到情况时可以调用资源相对多，有钱可花）：
全美最富的州：阿拉斯加 -- 州资产786亿美元，负债106亿美元， 负债率仅仅是13.5% 净值680亿美元高踞全美绝对数值第三。 因为州资产如此充分，阿拉斯加州是美国七个不受个人所得税的州之一。 因为他们从石油和天然气里的税就能让这个州如此之富了。。。
第二到第十分别是：
内不拉斯加：州资产151亿美元，负债22.5亿，负债率 14.9%
南达科他：州资产74.1亿美元，负债11.7亿，负债率 15.8%
田纳西：州资产410亿美元，负债72亿，负债率17.5%
爱达荷：州资产153亿，负债32.8亿，负债率21.3%
俄克拉何马：州资产230亿，负债51亿，负债率22.1%
怀俄明：州资产241亿，负债55.6亿，负债率23%
北卡罗来那：州资产668亿，负债155亿，负债率23.2%
犹他州：州资产312亿，负债76.7亿，负债率24.5%
北达科他：州资产265亿，负债69.5亿，负债率26.2%
全美债务最深的州：
新泽西：州资产562亿，负债1765亿，负债率314.1% 已经可以破产3次了。 最核心的问题，高福利和原来制定的州退休金标准
伊利诺伊：州资产662亿，负债1889.3亿，负债率303.7% 同样和新泽西难兄难弟，没排第一是因为新泽西资产更少，所以债务率高。 核心问题还是福利债务。
马萨诸塞：州资产362亿，负债892亿，负债率245.8% 继续，福利债务
康乃迪克：州资产297.5亿，负债676.1亿，负债率227.2%
肯塔基：州资产350亿，负债496.3亿，负债率141.6%
加利福尼亚：州资产2494亿，负债2797.5亿，负债率112.2%
马里兰：州资产485亿，负债509.2亿，负债率105% 马里兰的问题主要是州的医疗补助问题严重。
罗德岛：州资产707亿，负债737亿，负债率104.2%
夏威夷：州资产 212.4亿，负债198.7亿，负债率93.6%
路易斯安那：州资产311.6亿，251亿，负债率80.6%
其他的州中，纽约，宾夕法尼亚都是80% 属于危险线。 路易斯安那负债率高主要是因为几次飓风对州资产损失很大。 造成的负债比较多，但由于资产回升，负债率也是快速走低，和其他州结构性负债有所不同。
大家觉得那个州更富有呢？
由于联邦税率是各州一样的， 那么各州税率就是造成收入的主要差距（大型城市的城市税有额外影响）。 这里还要加入物价水平对于实际收入的影响。
在这里我首先根据物价水平取了州家庭中位收入的调整后真实收入。 然后加入所在州税率（DC使用了城市税 8.5%) 从而得到了真实收入（住大城市里的有额外的税，这里就先忽略了）得到结果如下：
全美家庭(household, 通常定义是一夫一妻，外加2个子女）州税后(联邦/城市税前)真实收入倒数前10的州
1。密西西比：$42,703
2。西弗吉尼亚：$42,822
3。阿肯色：$43,729
4。新墨西哥: $43,776
5。纽约州: $45,893 （对，你没看错，纽约州就是加上纽约市，税后均收入也是美国倒数前5，这里还不算纽约的市税）
6。 路易斯安那: $46,216
7。佛罗里达: $46,375
8。肯塔基: $46,547
9。缅因: $46,754
10。爱达荷: $47,618
美国家庭收入最富的10个州（标准同上）
1。阿拉斯加 $66,033
2。马里兰 $62,663
3。新罕普舍尔 $62,221
4。马萨诸塞 $60,102
5。 北达科他 $59,907
6。佛吉尼亚 $59,623
7。 犹他 $59,435
8。 华盛顿特区 $59,144
9。 康乃迪克 $58,947
10。 明尼苏达 $58,423
综合所有数据来看，阿拉斯加的真实家庭收入大概是密西西比的1.55倍，但是阿拉斯加的工作机会相对较小（石油，渔业，林业），气候也比较恶劣。 （同样的还有新罕普舍尔，北达科他，犹他和明尼苏达）
考虑到州政府负债情况（对未来加税的预期，例如麻省负债高达245% 你说他未来不加税减福利我都不信，类似的还有康乃迪克)，收入/税率/教育水平，我个人认为马里兰-弗吉尼亚一线地区还是相对比较好的选择。
顺便查了一下美国各郡的家庭均收入情况。
全美一共有16个郡家庭均收入在10万美元以上。 算是中产里的顶尖水平（因为豪富基本上不收工资，生活和公司走，所以「收入」反而不好统计，这是工资水平来算的。 所以说是中产顶尖代表。
他们分别是：
然后我们按州税和物价进行调整（有些州如俄亥俄，田纳西还有乔治亚的物价低，实际购买力强）后如下
我发现我所在的Delware county OH的大家真富啊。。。全美第4。。。另外靠近DC的油水真多，全美前三里俩是他们
