THE UNITED STATES WEALTH MAP
States such as Arkansas, Kansas and Texas are also well placed to benefit. “Arkansas is a
massive beneficiary of the booming agribusiness and the return of manufacturing,” says Sr.
Mamgren. “Nationwide, transport networks and the cheap energy/fracking story are going well.
When people get priced out of major cities like New York and San Francisco, they move to
cities like Kansas City and Houston. The middle of America is where the economic action
is now.” The number of UHNWIs in Houston, for example, is expected to rise by 57%
by 2023, far outstripping the overall US growth rate of 21%.
