Everything is bigger in Texas — including big business.

Consistently ranked as the state with the third-highest number of billionaires in the US, the Lone Star State's wealth is distributed across investment bankers and professional sports team owners. The majority, however, is held by oil tycoons, as Texas produces almost 40% of the nation's oil supply.

According to U.S. News & World Report, Texas' billionaire population is third only to superrich hubs New York and California, whose wealthiest individuals include real-estate empires in Manhattan and top execs in Silicon Valley, respectively.

Real-time data from Forbes' billionaire list includes notable names such as Dallas Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones, Shark Tank's Mark Cuban, and Walmart heiress Alice Walton. Additionally, Tito's Vodka and Dell Technologies are headquartered outside Austin, Texas' capital city.
