The South American City Where The Average Billionaire Is 31 Years Old, And Other Cities With The Youngest Ultra Wealthy

According to the latest Forbes data, a record-breaking 3,028 people on planet Earth are now billionaires. And as the number of billionaires grows, so does their age. The average billionaire is now 67.3 years old, a slight increase in age from recent years.

While the billionaire class is getting older, there are unique pockets of super young billionaires scattered around the world. In many cities, the average billionaire is under 60 years old, while in one unique seaside town the average billionaire is just 31 years old. Many of the youngest billionaires are heirs and heiresses to old money fortunes, while some billionaires under 50 are self-made tycoons.
