Why do you think it's important to conduct surveys like this one?

The Fed looks at a lot of data to understand the economy.

Looking especially at wealth, it's one of the gauges on the dashboard to see how people are faring, how families and their household economic conditions are doing.

And so this survey provides that kind of data across different geographies and demographic groups, and it gives us a real snapshot of the Commonwealth.

The Fed uses other data and surveys around wealth nationally.

But this is a first of its kind survey with this rigor and coverage to really give this picture for a state.

And so we're very excited to have this out to foster a dialogue and a conversation about the results, about what they mean, and the extent to which they reflect that people are able to achieve economic opportunity.

Can you expand a little on that?
