Reading it. ACS 1-year estimate, income before taxes. Cross-state comparisons carry a margin of error and ignore cost-of-living differences.
Comparing states is harder than it looks. A dollar buys more in some states than others, and survey estimates carry a margin of error. Read the map for the pattern, not for a precise ranking.
