BEARFACTS

BEA Regional Facts—BEARFACTS—consists of computer-generated narratives for states, counties, metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs), and BEA Economic Areas. The narratives describe an area's personal income using current estimates, growth rates, and a breakdown of the sources of personal income.

You may compare the year of your choice (1979–2006) with a year that falls ten years prior, for example 2006 compared to 1996. A clickable state map will guide you.

State BEARFACTS are based on the state estimates published on March 26, 2008

County, BEA Economic Area, and Metropolitan Statistical Area BEARFACTS are based on the county estimates published on April 24, 2008.
