      **Median Individual Full-Time Income by State, Cost-of-Living Adjusted**
      This map shows 2024 state-level incomes adjusted into July 2025 dollars using the new Census data. Median household incomes are normalised using Bureau of Labor Statistics Regional Price Parities, which account for housing, food, education, transportation, and other goods and services to reflect real purchasing power. Data come from the new Census release of September 2025.

      RPP data from: [https://www.bea.gov/data/prices-inflation/regional-price-parities-state-and-metro-area](https://www.bea.gov/data/prices-inflation/regional-price-parities-state-and-metro-area)

      Household data from: [https://fred.stlouisfed.org/release/tables?eid=259515&rid=249](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/release/tables?eid=259515&rid=249)

      Made using Datawrapper, calculations in Excel.

    2. As a New Hampshire resident, yep, we have it pretty good.

      One of the top contributors is that businesses get tons of revenue from the neighboring states due to not having a sales tax. Mass, Vermont, and Maine residents constantly travel across state lines, spend their money, and leave.

    3. Really curious how Iowa has a 100k average when I see houses going there for far, far less than they do on the Illinois side of the border.

    4. Hmmm Ohio being higher then NY. Ohio is a quiet powerhouse but I think ohio is benefiting from being seen as LCOL while NY is hurt by been seen as HCOL across the whole state. Neither being all that reflective of the actual situation.

      How do you factor cost of living in a state like California where it fluctuates so much and the population is greater than most countries?

      In San Jose the median home price is 1.3 million (population is about 1 million).

      In Fresno the median home price is 416,000 (population 550,000).

      How do you factor cost of living from region to region and somehow weight it by population as well?

      Anyone know why Utah is so high? Is it tech, mining, both, or something else?
