Personal income, in current dollars, increased in 49 states and the District of Columbia in the second quarter of 2023, with the percent change ranging from 6.1 percent in New York and the District of Columbia to –2.7 percent in Maine (table 1), according to statistics released today by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA).

Earnings increased in 20 of the 24 industries for which BEA prepares quarterly estimates
(table 3).
Professional, scientific, and technical services; health care and social assistance; and finance and insurance were the leading contributors to the overall growth in earnings nationally.
- Finance and insurance was the leading contributor to the increase in earnings in three states, including New York, the state with the largest percent increase in personal income.

Annual update of state statistics
- The annual estimates of personal income by state from 1979 to 2022 and the quarterly estimates of personal income by state from the first quarter of 1979 through the first quarter of 2023 were revised.
- The annual estimates of GDP by state from 2017 to 2022 were also revised.
- These updates incorporate new and revised source data that are more complete and more detailed than previously available, updates to seasonal factors, and the results of the September 28, 2023, comprehensive update of the National Economic Accounts. Our online journal, the Survey of Current Business, will publish an article in November describing the results.
- BEA used U.S. Census Bureau (Census) population figures to calculate per capita personal income estimates for the first quarter of 2020 through the second quarter of 2023.
- For earlier estimates, BEA used intercensal population statistics that it developed based on Census methodology. See "Note on Per Capita Personal Income and Population."
- BEA will send out an advisory with the date and time when this information becomes available.
