What's the wealth inequality metric for them?

Not the worst but top 10 in inequality

Also with the high cost of living most of the poor move out so that would make it seem lower then if you look at the inequality to the neighboring states where people may move to or the u.s. as a whole. Probably harder to find but it would be interesting to see inequality among people born in Massachusetts, including those who left. Would be interesting to see if there system is actually creating successful people, or if they're just kicking out unsuccessful people and attracting already successful people from other states.
