That is some interesting data, I'm sure it will spark some debate. Hartford is a national insuarance center isn't it? Also - it is nice to see some bad press plagued cities are still major economic forces, such as Buffalo ranked #11 in the per capita list.

Wow! I have to say I'm shocked in Grand Rapids' GMP - per capita ranking! Does anyone know what would drive a per capita "ranking" to be so high? How does one region's per capita outperform others? Level or value of services or products sold?

im the most shocked about how high Albany, NY ranks. What in the hell??

My guess is that Albany and Harrisburg rank high due to the fact they are both state capitals in large states but are relatively small cities. The amount of government related jobs and their offshoots required for such large states obviously bolster the economy of these two smaller cities.

The same is probably true for Washington DC, only on a national level.

Doesn't really explain away the high showings of the other upstate NY cities though.

3 Washington $53,735 276.2

4 Boston $52,873 233.7

Connecticut's 4 major cities are in the Top 15. Very impressive indeed. :D

I'm not getting this at all. Places like Syracuse are notorious for being economically flat and being struggling cities. What gives?

Per capita means per person. If a company downsizes their workforce, they may produce the same amount of goods, i.e. they they are flat, but the goods per person rises.

Places with rapidly growing populations, may have a lower per capita income.

hmm, number 12, Detroit did pretty well. im kinda surprised that Flint, Mi isnt on the list(toward the bottom of it), there are alot of manufacturing plants here, including several large car factories

but on the second list, im blown away that a place called Oxnard, which ive never heard of, beat Detroit
