We prove that solutions to the Monge-Ampere inequality $$\det D^2u \geq 1$$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are strictly convex away from a singular set of Hausdorff $n-1$ dimensional measure zero. Furthermore, we show this is optimal by constructing solutions to $\det D^2u = 1$ with singular set of Hausdorff dimension as close as we like to $n-1$. As a consequence we obtain $W^{2,1}$ regularity for the Monge-Ampere equation with bounded right hand side and unique continuation for the Monge-Ampere equation with sufficiently regular right hand side.
