Chester County is the best place in Pennsylvania for women to save money, according to a recently published study by SmartAsset.

To determine the rankings for its list of the Best Places for Women to Save, the fintech company analyzed county-level data on income for women working full-time over 12 months. Using federal and state tax rates, SmartAsset calculated the median after-tax income, and then subtracted the cost of living in each county. The places with the highest remaining amount represented the counties where women have the best opportunity in the state to build their savings.

Chester County scored 62.98 on the Best Places for Women to Save Index, with a median income of $57,103, cost of living of $23,072, and an estimated tax rate of 16.20 percent. This gives women of Chester County a purchasing power of 2.07.
