Tel Aviv’s high ranking has more to do with size than money. Its reported 35,200 millionaires are big fish in a small, 20.08-square-mile pond. New York, by comparison, is home to 339,200 millionaires, Hong Kong houses 227,900 of the ultra-rich, and London boasts 357,200.

Geneva came in first in R.S.’s list, with 16,958 millionaires per square mile, followed by Monaco, which is less than 1 square mile in size but was able to fit in a healthy 13,400. Jerusalem came in 32nd place with 271 millionaires per square mile unit.
