How D.C Broke America's Richest County

In 1960 Loudoun County Virginia was a small rural county with an agricultural economy and little in the way of major opportunity or notoriety. Today Loudoun is the wealthiest county in the entire United States thanks to it's proximity to Washington D.C. and it being the place that fuels much of America's high-speed internet and cloud services. If you would like to see a future video on any U.S. (city, state, region), or any interesting international comparison- please share in the comments section below. I'm focused on making the geographic, economic, and historical content that your interested in most. A big thank you to MapTiler / OpenStreetMap Contributors and the GEOlayers 3 application.
