New data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) shows the rankings.
The order has been determined based on gross disposable household income (GDHI).
GDHI is the amount of money all the individuals in the home earn after they've paid tax and received any benefits.
The majority of the areas in the bottom five are in the Midlands.
Nottingham came out as the poorest area in the country.
