How far apart the counties of the Upstate are on household income

the Upstate · Data as of 2026-09-19 · ALEX Intelligence

Read this carefully: Each county's figure is that county's own and none of them is a figure for the market as a whole. The counties compared are the counties this market is defined as, all read from the same table at the same vintage.

Methodology

Source:

U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, 2024

Measure

Median household income, ranked highest first across Anderson, Greenville, Laurens, Oconee, Pickens, Spartanburg, SC (6 ranked in total).

How the headline figure is computed

Greenville County against Laurens County, the highest and lowest of the 6 units compared. Every unit is named individually in the table below and each figure is that unit's own; none of them is a figure for the market as a whole. The median across the 6 is $66,234. Greenville County is an outlier within this group: it sits 3.4 times further from the median of these 6 units than the next-highest does. The middle of this range is therefore not typical of the group and the range should not be read as one.

Universe

Places below a 5,000-resident floor are excluded so a median computed on a handful of households cannot top the ranking.
