Where Maine's investors live

Maine taxpayers claimed $2.15 billion in income from corporate dividends and net capital gains in 2013, according to IRS data. Nearly half of that income, or about $972 million, went to households with more than $200,000 in total income.

Statewide, fewer than 1 in 5 tax returns claim income from dividends or capital gains. But in several Midcoast and Portland-area communities, about 1 in 3 returns claimed income from investments. At the top of the list stands Cumberland Foreside, where taxpayers claimed an average of $50,484 per tax return filed.

* Note: these figures do not include income from retirement investments, such as IRA and 401(k) accounts, since those gains are typically not taxed until retirement.
