among the states/district, DC has the highest average income

  1. District of Columbia: $96,873
    DC consistently leads with the highest per capita personal income in the U.S. The BEA’s 2023 data (released December 2024) lists DC at $96,873, up from $93,930 in 2022, reflecting a 5.4% growth rate into 2024 Q3. This figure likely nudges closer to $100,000 by early 2025, driven by federal jobs and high-earning sectors like law and lobbying. Its small, urban population and concentration of professional roles keep it at the top.
  2. Connecticut: $85,610
    Connecticut ranks second among states, with a 2023 per capita income of $85,610 (BEA data), up 4.8% from $81,674 in 2022. Known for finance (think hedge funds in Greenwich) and insurance industries, plus proximity to New York, it’s held this spot for years. By 2025, it’s likely around $88,000, assuming steady growth.
  3. Massachusetts: $82,475
    Massachusetts comes in third, with a 2023 per capita income of $82,475, a 5.0% increase from $78,540 in 2022 (BEA). Its tech hubs (Boston), elite universities, and healthcare sector fuel this. Extrapolating to 2025, it’s probably near $85,000, edging out competitors like New Jersey.
