From the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) press release: "Per capita personal income grew 4.6 percent in 2005, slightly less than the 5.0 percent growth in 2004 according to estimates released today by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. Growth rates in most states were tightly clustered about the national average; however, Louisiana's 9.1 percent decline was notably slower while Wyoming's 7.3 percent increase was notably higher."
Montana's growth rate was 6.3 percent. New state annual estimates for personal income are now available on the BEA website. The site includes links to the new data tables (Excel file) and long-term data (1929-2005).
