List of U.S. states by GDP per capita

This is a list of U.S. states sorted by their gross state product (GSP) per capita.

Methodology

GSP is the state counterpart to a country's gross domestic product (GDP), the most comprehensive measure of national economic activity. The United States Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) derives GSP for a state as the sum of the GSP originating in all the industries in the state. The list contains statistics from the BEA for 2012 in 2005 chained, constant U.S. dollars.
