I don't know about the wealthiest, but the top 5 counties with the highest income by per capita income are:

1 Marin County, California $44,962
2 New York County, New York (Manhattan) $42,922
3 City of Falls Church, Virginia[1] $41,052
4 Pitkin County, Colorado $40,811
5 Fairfield County, Connecticut $38,790

(So Fairfield County made it up there)

The highest-income counties by personal per capita income are:

1 New York County, New York (Manhattan) $85,789
2 Loving County, Texas $71,723
3 Marin County, California $67,710
4 Pitkin County, Colorado $66,623
5 Teton County, Wyoming $62,852

So, the three counties that made it in the top 5 on both lists are:

NYC, NY
Marin County, CA
Pitkin County, CO

Douglas, Colorado near Denver. Fairfax, VA lost the No 1 spot.
The bragging rights for richest county go to Douglas, Colo., a 176,000-person bedroom community between Denver and Colorado Springs. It is the nation’s fastest-growing county in 1990’s, nearly tripling in size.

Believe it or not: Naperville IL. It's a small county just ourside of Chicago and is the richest county in America.
