Loudoun County is once again the richest county in the U.S., according the latest Census Bureau estimates.
The county boasts a median household income just shy of $126,000, the tops in the nation.
Almost 10,000 Loudoun residents commute to D.C., while the vast majority find well-paid jobs in the county. Top local employers include Dulles Airport, Loudoun County Public Schools and the Department of Homeland Security.
