METROPOLITAN AREA PERSONAL AND PER CAPITA INCOME IN 2003 New Light on the Recovery
Personal income increased in all but two of the nation's metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) from 2002 to 2003, according to newly available estimates released today by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. This is an improvement over the previous two years when more than twenty metropolitan areas saw their personal income decline. Per capita personal income increased in all but five MSAs from 2002 to 2003, in contrast to the previous two years when that income declined in as many as sixty MSAs.
The estimates shed new light on the nature of the recovery in its second year, showing that personal income growth generally strengthened in US cities in 2003, despite often weak or negative employment growth. The chart above illustrates this, plotting for MSAs the percent change in personal income against the percent change in wage and salary employment. Each MSA in the chart is represented by a bubble whose size is proportional to the number of jobs in the MSA. Despite job loss in 178, or nearly one-half, of the MSAs, personal income declined in only two-Yuma, Arizona and Santa Cruz-Watsonville, California. Even when account is taken of the 1.9 percent inflation rate as measured by the national price index for personal consumption expenditure (indicated by the dashed line in the chart), real personal income declined in only 39, or roughly one-tenth, of the MSAs.
While wages and salaries grew at 2.5 percent, several items contributed to strong income growth: personal current transfer receipts (which grew 4.1%), proprietors' income (8.5%), employer contributions for employee pension and insurance funds (10.7%), and military earnings (14.5%).
The bulk of transfer receipts-largely social security, Medicare, and Medicaid-grow with population and the cost of medical care. Most of the growth in military wages represents additional payments to activated reservists and active duty military forces as a consequence of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Military employment rose only slightly. The double-digit increase in employer contributions was mostly due to an unusually large payment to reduce unfunded pension liabilities.
The relative performance of individual MSAs largely reflects their industrial specialization. The fastest growing MSAs tended to depend heavily on the military, motor vehicle manufacturing (the industry making the biggest contribution to pension funds), tourism, or real estate. The slowest growing MSAs tended to have a disproportionately large air transportation, securities, or computer manufacturing sector.
Per capita income rankings. The table below lists the MSAs with highest and lowest per capita incomes. Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk, Connecticut had the highest per capita income of all MSAs in 2003. The average income of $60,803 was nearly double the national average. All of the top ten MSAs in 2003 were in the top ten last year. McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Texas had the lowest per capita income of all MSAs. Its average income of $15,184 was slightly less than half of the national average. Nine of the ten MSAs with the lowest per capita incomes in 2003 also had the lowest incomes in 2002. Provo-Orem, Utah is new to the bottom ten this year, displacing Las Cruces, New Mexico.

Note about data on BEA Web site
The complete set of income and employment estimates for 1969-2003 for counties, metropolitan areas, micropolitan areas, and BEA Economic Areas is now available interactively on BEA's Web site. Detailed annual estimates of earnings and employment by industry, components of personal income, personal current transfer receipts, and farm gross income and expenses by major category for each of the geographic regions are available. These estimates are the only detailed, broadly inclusive, annual measure of economic activity available for local areas. Go to www.bea.gov/bea/regional/reis/ to access these estimates.
BEA Regional Facts (BEARFACTS), a narrative summary of personal income, per capita personal income, and components of income for metropolitan areas and counties, is available on BEA's Web site. Go to www.bea.gov/bea/regional/bearfacts/ to access these summaries.
Data on personal income and per capita personal income for BEA regions, states, and metropolitan areas, as well as data for counties, will be presented in the June issue of the Survey of Current Business, the monthly journal of the Bureau of Economic Analysis. See the end of this release for information on obtaining issues of the Survey of Current Business in printed form and on BEA's Web site. For further information, call (202) 606-5360.
Definitions
Personal income is the income received by all persons from all sources. Personal income is the sum of net earnings by place of residence, rental income of persons, personal dividend income, personal interest income, and personal current transfer receipts. Net earnings is earnings by place of work (the sum of wage and salary disbursements (payrolls), supplements to wages and salaries, and proprietors' income) less contributions for government social insurance, plus an adjustment to convert earnings by place of work to a place-of-residence basis. Personal income is measured before the deduction of personal income taxes and other personal taxes and is reported in current dollars (no adjustment is made for price changes).
The estimate of personal income in the United States is derived as the sum of the county estimates; it differs from the estimate of personal income in the national income and product accounts (NIPAs) because of differences in coverage, in the methodologies used to prepare the estimates, and in the timing of the availability of source data.
Per capita personal income is calculated as the personal income of residents of a given area divided by the resident population of the area. In computing per capita personal income, BEA uses the Census Bureau's annual midyear population estimates.
The metropolitan area definitions used by BEA for its entire series of personal income estimates are the county-based definitions developed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for federal statistical purposes and last updated in February 2005. OMB's general concept of a metropolitan area is that of a geographic area consisting of a large population nucleus together with adjacent communities having a high degree of economic and social integration with the nucleus. The personal income and per capita personal income estimates for the 361 MSAs are shown in Table 1. Detailed personal income estimates for metropolitan statistical areas, micropolitan statistical areas, metropolitan divisions, and combined statistical areas are available on the BEA Web site at www.bea.gov.
BEA's major national, regional, international, and industry estimates; the Survey of Current Business; and BEA news releases are available without charge on BEA's Web site:www.bea.gov. By visiting the site, you can also subscribe to receive free e-mail summaries of BEA releases and announcements.

1. Per capita personal income was computed using Census Bureau midyear population estimates.
2. Percent change calculated from unrounded data.
3. The personal income level shown for the United States is derived as the sum of the county estimates. It differs from the estimate
income in the national income and product accounts because of differences in coverage, in the methodologies
used to prepare the estimates, and in the timing of the availability of source data.
4. The metropolitan area definitions used by BEA for its personal income estimates are the new county-based definitions issued by the
and Budget in June 2003 (with revisions released February 2004 and February 2005) for federal statistical purposes.
