Greetings from the 1%: recent IRS data shows that nine of the ten most heavily taxed neighborhoods in the U.S. are in New York's metropolitan area. And as Crain's reports, "The $16.5 billion paid in the nine ZIP codes would be enough to buy a controlling interest in General Motors or match the combined economies of the Bahamas, Fiji and Tajikistan." The only neighborhood outside of the metro area that qualified for the list is a Houston suburb. [Crain's]
