Reference no: EM131017842

As the mobility of the population in the United States has increased and with the increase in home-based employment, there is an inclination to assume that the personal income in the United States would become fairly uniform across the country. The following table provides the per capita personal income for each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Income (thousands of dollars)	Number of States
22.0-24.9	5
25.0-27.9	13
28.0-30.9	16
31.0-33.9	$9
34.0-36.9	4
37.0-39.9	2
40.0-42.9	2
Total	51
