Durham and Chapel Hill rank as one of the top ten areas in America for economic inequality, according to CNN Money.

The list uses 2013 U.S. Census data to compare the gap between the top-earning five percent of residents and the lowest-earning twenty percent. In the Durham-Chapel Hill metropolitan area, that ranges from an average annual income of $383,000 for five percent to just $11,700 for the bottom twenty percent.

Bridgeport, Connecticut ranked number one as the place where the most wealth was concentrated in the hands of the fewest. New York ranks third, Miami ranks fourth.
