Florida had the biggest net gain of high-earning households, according to a recent SmartAsset study .
Using $200,000 of adjusted gross income as a threshold, the study examined the number of high-income households moving into and out of each state to determine the net inflow.
More high-income households have left California and New York than moved in, but some states saw the opposite.
"I would say that's a little unique, that these smaller-population states are really pulling their weight in attracting or pulling above their weight in attracting high-earning households," DeJohn says.
Here are the states that saw the biggest net inflow of high-earning households:
