As someone who grew up in Los Alamos, the reason why so many people are millionaires is because they have nowhere to spend their money. Rents in the town are subsidized by the government, making the already limited commercial real estate incredibly expensive, thereby stifling the growth of businesses in the town. The nearest Walmart is over 30 minutes away by car and the nearest decent restaurants are 45 minutes away in Santa Fe. Isolation makes the town incredibly safe, but also incredibly boring to live in.

It's important to note a couple other things with the geography of why that part of Los Alamos is wealthier than Oak Ridge (I actually live in Oak Ridge so I study this alot). 1. The population of Oak Ridge is about 3 times that of Los Alamos. 2a. Oak Ridge is very close to Knoxville (third biggest city in TN and growing VERY rapidly). Given that west Knoxville is one of the wealthier areas of the city meaning that most lower income people cannot afford to live there and so have moved out to Oak Ridge. 2b. In the switch, many of the higher educated (and income) people who work at the Oak Ridge labs, dont actually live in Oak Ridge and instead live in the aforementioned wealthier (and much newer) parts of West Knoxville. 3. Oak Ridge's population is also more spread out and includes decent amounts of rural folk who are also (on average) much lower income.

The entire county is actually one of the poorest in the state, but the lake/vacation area spans 3 counties...so none of them get all the money.

Many of the $1 million homes are nothing but vacation homes, empty half the time or more!

There’s something similar in Washington State! We have Hanford, one of the worst designed facilities that made the radioactive material used in the Manhattan Project, and it is full of radioactive waste and deteriorating facilities! So now we have the Tri-Cities (Comprised of 4 cities: Richland, Kennewick, Pasco and West Richland) which was originally a mediocre farming location and railroad junction that became a proper metropolis location after Hanford was built nearby. The growth was so explosive one of the local highschools made their school mascot “The Bombers.” This was definitely a reference to the explosive population growth and not a tasteless reference to the city’s compliance in creating nuclear weapons that killed over 200,000 civilians. In any case, it still exists as a major metropolis that is roughly tied for the second largest urban area in Washington State, while also having the largest concentration of people with cancer in the Pacific Northwest due to all the radiation. So next time you’re in Washington State, remember the Tri-Cites, and then avoid going there.

I would go every year for 5 years in the row exploring all the history of Hanford. Skagit is 55.9 cases per 100,000 Klickitat is 53.4 cases per 100,000 Chelan is 53.5 cases per 100,00 Compared to Franklin at 37 cases per 100,000 and Benton at 35.3 cases per 100,000, it's clearly middle of the pack.

Very curious why Truman was still signing things in 1954 when he left office in 1953…

1:57 Truman signed? I thought Truman was president from April 12, 1945 - January 20, 1953 and was signed into law by President Dwight Eisenhower on August 30, 1954.

Lived there for a year. Feels NOTHING like New Mexico.

I live in los Alamos currently and it is not even close to as good as they make it out to be. There is nothing to do in the town, because all of the building owners that have empty buildings just let them sit because they want the lab to buy it from them. There is a high suicide rate and drug addiction and it’s mostly in the kids. I have love many friends up in los Alamos.

Not much sand here. It's a volcano, Los Alamos is built on the side of a volcano.
