Replication Data for The Geographic Redistribution of Income in the United States, 1970-2010: The Role of the Super-Wealthy

An increasing share of the super-rich accounts for much of the difference in income growth between the richest northeastern states and the rest of the country. Several other states with fast-growing income levels, however, experienced more balanced growth.
