The Research Triangle area (Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill) and Charlotte's southern suburbs display the highest median household incomes in the state, with multiple zip codes exceeding $125,000, forming distinct yellow-green clusters in the central Piedmont region. In stark contrast, the rural southeastern Coastal Plain—particularly the Robeson and Columbus county areas—and parts of the far western mountains exhibit persistently low incomes below $30,000–$40,000, reflecting longstanding economic disparities tied to limited employment bases and higher poverty rates. The Outer Banks and select coastal areas near Wilmington show moderate-to-high incomes, while a broad swath of the eastern interior remains economically depressed relative to the state's major metropolitan corridors.
