About per capita income (real)
What this measures: Total personal income per resident in constant 2017 dollars, adjusted for both regional prices and national inflation.
Why it matters: Real per capita income is the single best summary of a state's economic standard of living.
Watch out: It is an average, not a typical household. States with high inequality (concentrated top earners) score better here than the median resident's experience would suggest.
