Personal income grew in all 50 states in the second quarter of 2016 with growth accelerating in 25 states (table A). In the first quarter, personal income fell (or was unchanged) in 19 states, and growth slowed in an additional 18 states. Second-quarter growth rates ranged from 0.4 percent in Alaska to 1.4 percent in Utah. On average, personal income grew 1.0 percent in the second quarter, up from 0.3 percent in the first quarter (chart 1). However, price inflation, as measured by the national price index for personal consumption expenditures, also accelerated, rising to 0.5 percent in the second quarter from 0.1 percent in the first quarter.
