About this indicator

This divides a state's net output by its population to approximate average economic output per resident, a common shorthand for relative prosperity across states. It is shown at current prices, so some of any rise reflects inflation rather than real gains, and it is an average that hides inequality between rich and poor households. A state with slower population growth can also see per-capita figures climb even when total output grows modestly.
