Per Capita Production of the Fifty U.S. States and the District of Columbia
A state’s yearly production is measured by its Gross State Product (GSP).
The following table includes a ranking by per capita Gross State Product (measured in US dollars) of each of the fifty states and the District of Columbia. This calculation uses current prices, so states with higher prices (for example, Alaska, Connecticut, Massachusetts, California, and New York) tend to have higher GSPs. They may be productive in their own right, but the higher price level inflates their GSPs relative to states with lower prices.
The District of Columbia is ranked first, primarily because of its government presence, combined with its relatively small population. Alaska has both a high cost of living and a relatively small population. Delaware’s high ranking is primarily because of its strong corporate presence and its favorable tax laws. North Dakota and Utah increased their GSPs the most out of all states. North Dakota increased primarily because of its lucrative shale oil production (fracking), and Utah because of its favorable overall living conditions (weather, health care, education, infrastructure, etc.) which attracts businesses.
