Wealth Transfer in Pennsylvania 2016 (2016)
February 17, 2016 | Rural People and Communities
In 2008, the Center for Rural Pennsylvania published the first Transfer of Wealth (TOW) analysis of Pennsylvania to spark conversations about the magnitude of the assets present in every county of the commonwealth and the opportunities to invest a small portion of those assets toward community betterment projects. Since that first analysis, much has changed in Pennsylvania and the U.S. This TOW study integrated those changes into its estimates, as well as historical trends and key assumptions about the future, to develop more current estimates for this intergenerational transfer of wealth.
