New York

In fact, one in every forty billionaires in the world is born in the New York City — the billionaire-breeding capital of the world.

Wealth consultancy WealthInsight and Spear’s magazine have revealed, 52 billionaires have been born in the New York City, totaling 3.09% of all billionaires on the planet, the Russian capital, Moscow came in second (1.31% or 22 billionaires), while London came in third (1.25% or 21 billionaires). Hong Kong and Paris make up the remainder of the top five.

Within the US, seven cities have produced five or more billionaires: New York (52 billionaires), Chicago (11 billionaires), Los Angeles (9 billionaires) and Detroit, Houston, Pittsburgh and San Francisco (5 billionaires each).

New York

New York’s wealthiest billionaires include Koch Industries second-gen David Koch, media magnate Michael Bloomberg, and hedge funder George Soros, who have a combined wealth of $67 billion.
