FOREWORD
To respond to the increasing demand for regional economic measures, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)
began publishing LOCAL AREA PERSONAL INCOME in 1976. Personal income is a comprehensive economic measure that
covers income by type and broad industrial source. Because estimation methods for the total and its component
parts are the same for all States and local areas, comparisons among all the geographic units covered are
facilitated. Personal income represents a measure of the size of the local area consumer markets; when presented by
industrial source, It can also be Interpreted as a measure of the size of Industrial markets.
Summary personal income statistics have been regularly published in the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS, and
standard tabulations of both personal income and employment estimates have been provided on request (on a
reimbursable basis) from the Regional Economic Information System. This publication significantly expands the
availability of BEA’s annual personal income estimates for counties by making them available on a regular basis in
a comprehensive, yet compact and low-cost form.
Daniel H. Garnick
Associate Director for Regional Economics

While the county income measures contained in this publication resulted from the effort, experience, and cooperation of
BEA personnel, their ultimate foundation was the statistical work of other government agencies as well as private
organizations. Particularly noteworthy for their contributions were the State Employment Security Agencies,
various State agencies administering income maintenance programs, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Bureau of the
Census, Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Internal Revenue Service, Office of
Research and Statistics of the Social Security Administration, Veterans Administration, and Association of
American Railroads.

INTRODUCTION
This volume is part of a nine-volume set published annually by the Regional
Economic Measurement Division of the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). The set
presents, for local areas, BEA's estimates of total and per capita personal income as
well as additional detail on the sources of personal income by type and major
industry. There are six major components of personal income: Wage and salary
disbursements; other labor income; proprietors’ income; rental income of persons,
dividends, and personal interest income; transfer payments; and personal contri­
butions for social insurance. The sum of three of these major components (wage and
salary disbursements, other labor income, and proprietors’ income) is termed
"earnings” and is presented for the major industry groups. A description of each of
the six major components and how they are estimated Is contained in part II of the
methodology section. A discussion of the characteristics and applications of these
personal income estimates is contained in part I of the methodology section.
Estimates are for the most recent year (the calendar year ending approximately 18
months prior to publication date) and the preceding 5 years.
The estimates presented in these volumes reflect the 1980 national income and
product account (NIPA) comprehensive revisions of personal income, which were
extended to the State personal income series in July 1981. (The NIPA revisions are
described in the December 1980 issue of the SURVEY OF CURRENT BUSINESS.) The
revised local area series also reflects distributional revisions made possible by the
availability of new or more timely data at the county level. A detailed description of
the sources and methods used in making the estimates is presented in volume 1 of the
set. Volumes 2-9 contain a summary statement of methodology. These statements of
methodology are intended to give the user a basis for evaluating the reliability of the
estimates and the necessary information for determining their suitability for various
applications.
Volume 1 of the set is a national volume presenting estimates for the United States
as a whole and for all the regions, States, and Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas
(SMSA’s). In addition, it contains the detailed methodology, charts and tables
showing the distribution and changes in total personal income for regions, appendixes
with county definitions of SMSA’s, and samples of tables available through the
Regional Economic Information System.
The primary tables presented in this edition (tables 1, 4, and 5 in this volume)
differ from those presented in previous editions. They have been revised to improve

the presentation of total and per capita personal income, to add estimates of nonfarm
personal income (total personal income (TPI) less farm earnings), and to improve
the distinction between place of residence and place of work.
Each of volumes 2-9 presents estimates of one of the eight BEA regions: New
England, Mideast, Great Lakes, Plains, Southeast, Southwest, Rocky Mountain, and
Far West. A single regional volume includes estimates for the United States, the
region, the States, SMSA’s, and counties of the region, and a summary methodology.
This volume presents the personal income estimates for the period 1976-81 for
the United States, for the New England region, for the six States of the region, and for
the counties and metropolitan areas of each State. This volume also includes a
summary description of the sources and methods used in producing the county
estimates.
In addition to the statistical tables, these volumes include several analytic aids.
• County outline maps prepared by the Bureau of the Census are presented for
each State and for the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. These maps serve not
only to separate the data into State groupings for easy reference, but aid the reader
in locating counties and metropolitan areas. The maps for New England States are
modified by BEA to show New England County Metropolitan Areas (NECMA’s) rather
than SMSA’s. Volume 1 includes maps of the United States that show 1981 per capita
income levels for regions and for States.
• Pie charts show for each region and State the distribution of 1981 TPI within the
area. The charts show up to four of the largest SMSA’s or State portions of SMSA’s in
each State; the sum of the remaining SMSA counties, if any; and the sum of the
nonmetropolitan counties in the State. It should be noted that the charts show only
the portion of each SMSA that lies within that State, whereas the tables present data
for entire SMSA’s.
• Bar charts for each region show percent changes in TPI from 1977 to 1981 for the
United States, and for each State in the region. Similar charts are presented for each
State, showing percent changes for the United States, the State, and each portion of
the State that is represented in the pie chart.
• Two analytic tables are included for each region. The first table shows the 20
counties with the largest and the smallest 1981 per capita income in the region. The
second table shows percent changes in TPI and per capita income for the States of
that region.

The BEA Regional Economic Information System
The personal income tables contained in the nine-volume set, as well as other
standard tabulations discussed below, are available from the BEA Regional Economic
Information System (REIS). REIS is the term applied to the data files, computer
programs, and staff established for the maintenance, management, and distribution
of the regional data base. This system currently contains approximately 27 million
separate estimates covering about 3,500 areas.

Data availability
REIS includes an active information retrieval service that provides a variety of
standard and specialized analytic tabulations for counties and specified combina­
tions of counties. A sample set of standard tabulations available through this system
is included in volume 1 as appendix B. All of the tabulations are available in magnetic
tape, microfiche, and computer printout form. The REIS data base currently includes
the following data sets:
Quarterly State personal income.— These estimates, available approximately 4
months after the close of the subject quarter, are published regularly in the January,
April, July, and October issues of the SURVEY. As of April 1983, quarterly estimates
are available from the first quarter of 1948 through the fourth quarter of 1982.
Annual State personal income.— Annual estimates for States are published twice
each year. Preliminary estimates of total and per capita personal income, derived
from the quarterly estimates, are published in the April issue of the SURVEY (4
months after the close of the subject year). A revised set of estimates, based on more
complete data and therefore more reliable, is presented in greater detail in the August
Issue of the SURVEY. Tabulations at the 2-digit Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC) code level are available (as of August 1983) through REIS for 1958-82.
Estimates for years 1929-57 have been revised, and tabulations (1-digit SIC code
level) are available through REIS.
Annual State disposable personal Income.— Annual estimates of total and per
capita disposable personal income for States are released as a companion series to

the revised annual State estimates of personal income and are published in the
August issue of the SURVEY. The State disposable personal income series is consis­
tent with the State personal income series for 1948 and subsequent years.
Annual county personal income.— These estimates, published in this volume,
become available approximately 16 months after the close of the subject year.
Summary statistics are published in the April issue of the SURVEY. Estimates are
available annually for 1965-81 and for selected years back to 1929.
Transfer payments.— The component estimates of transfer payments by county
are unpublished. However, tabulations of transfer payments by type of program are
available from REIS for the years corresponding to the county personal income series.
Farm income and expenditures.— These estimates of gross receipts and expendi­
tures of farms, which underlie the net farm income estimates in the State and county
personal income series, are unpublished. However, tabulations for the years 1969-81
are available from REIS.
Average annual employment for States and counties.— These unpublished esti­
mates are a companion series to the personal income estimates. They are con­
structed from similar sources using the same concepts and definitions. Tabulations
are available from REIS for 1967-81.

Disclosure avoidance
Much of the data underlying the personal income estimates is obtained directly
from Federal and State government administrative records, with the condition that
BEA observe the Federal and State regulations established to safeguard the privacy
of individuals and individual businesses. The BEA personal income estimates are
therefore subjected to rigorous scrutiny to determine if any data cells might disclose
the activities of a single firm or reporting unit. Such cells are suppressed in the final
tabulations. Because of the difficulty of adequately protecting against the inadvert­
ent disclosure of confidential information, it is BEA’s policy to release estimates for
2-digit SIC code industries for regions and States only and for 1-digit SIC code

industies for counties, SMSA’s, and all other geographic areas aggregated from the
county estimates.

BEA user group
In addition to responding to specific data requests addressed to it, REIS distributes
estimates through a group of universities and State agencies officially designated as
BEA users. This group was created by a congressional directive to provide BEA’s
personal income and related series to university bureaus and State agencies on a

METHODOLOGY

no-cost basis. Each of the 182 users receives a full set of standard tabulations for the
relevant State, its counties, and its metropolitan areas on the condition that the
organization will in turn distribute the data within its State. This congressional
directive encourages utilization by universities and State agencies of data that are
comparable for all States and counties and consistent with national totals. This
enhances the uniformity of analytic approaches taken in economic development
plans and programs and improves the ability of the recipient agencies to assess
sub-State economic developments and to service their local clientele.

METHODOLOGY
This methodology is divided into two parts. Part I provides background informa­
tion (including definitions, characteristics, and applications) pertaining to the State
and local area personal income series. Part II provides a summary description of the
sources and methods used for estimating each of the personal income components,
by county, for the most recent 3 years.

PART ¡. — BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Definitions and concepts
Personal income.— The personal income of an area is the income received by, or on
behalf of, all the residents of the area. It includes the income received by persons
from all sources, that is, from participation in production, from transfer payments
from government and business, and from government interest, which is treated like a
transfer payment. Persons consist of individuals, nonprofit institutions, private
noninsured welfare funds, and private trust funds. Proprietors’ income is treated in
its entirety as received by individuals. Life insurance carriers and private noninsured
pension funds are not counted as persons, but their saving is credited to persons.
Personal income is the sum of wage and salary disbursements, other labor income,
proprietors’ income with inventory valuation and capital consumption adjustments,
rental income of persons with capital consumption adjustment, personal dividend
income, personal interest income, and transfer payments, less personal contribu­
tions for social insurance.
Persons.— Persons, in the national and regional accounts, are defined as individ­
uals, nonprofit institutions, private noninsured welfare funds, and private trust
funds. The last three are referred to as “quasi-individuals." These are organizations
that either serve individuals directly (nonprofit institutions) or serve on their behalf
(such as private trust funds). Nonprofit institutions are considered to “ reside" at
their geographic locations (although appropriate source data for estimating the
institutions’ income are largely unavailable). The residence of a private trust fund or
similar entity, however, is considered to be identical to that of its beneficiary, and its
income (whether distributed or retained) is attributed to, and measured at, the
beneficiary’s place of residence.
Place of measurement.— For regional economic measurement, income may be
recorded either by place of work (where earned) or by place of residence (where
received). Personal income, by definition, is a measure of income received; there­
fore, BEA’s estimates of TPI reflect the State, county, and SMSA of residence of the
income recipients. A detailed description of the SMSA classification as used by BEA is
presented in appendix A in volume 1.
The earnings measure that BEA presents in industry detail for States, counties,
and SMSA's reflects place of work. These individual industry estimates are useful for
the analysis of the industrial structure of a given area.
The bulk of the income data basic to preparing the estimates of earnings is
reported by industry in the State and county in which the business establishment is
located. These data are subsequently adjusted to a place-of-residence basis for
inclusion in the personal income measure.
Rental income of persons, dividends, personal interest income, and transfer
payments are estimated from data that are reported where they are received. There
is no relevance to a where-earned classification for transfer payments. However,
"dividends, interest, and rent” converted to a where-earned basis (if data were
available to make the conversion) could be added to earnings to provide a rough
proxy of income originating from current production.
Industry classification.— The industry detail in which the estimates of earnings
are presented is in accordance with the SIC established by the Office of Management
and Budget (0M B). However (as footnoted in the tables), the estimates for the

years 1975-81 are based on the 1972 SIC and the estimates for the years previous to
1975 (available from REIS) are based on the 1967 SIC. It is not possible for BEA to
provide 1975 estimates on a 1967 SIC code basis, as well as on the 1972 SIC codes,
because of problems in reconciling differences in the data from the unemployment
insurance system. BEA is unable to distinguish between code changes due to OMB’s
revision of the SIC and code changes due to refiling required periodically of employers
by the State Employment Security Agencies (ESA’s). The latter incorporates changes
due to errors in classification and/or changes in product activity.
Per capita personal income.— Another measure of income presented by BEA in its
tables is per capita income. This is the TPI of the residents of a given area divided by
the resident population of the area. In computing per capita income for the counties,
BEA uses Bureau of the Census county population totals as of July 1, which are
available for 1971-79 and for 1981. BEA estimated midyear 1980 population based
on the 1980 census and on unpublished data on refugee population from the Bureau
of the Census.
Per capita personal income serves as an indicator of the quality of consumer
markets and of the economic well-being of the residents of an area. This measure,
however, can vary widely from county to county and should be used with caution for
several reasons.
In many instances, an unusually high (or low) per capita income is the temporary
result of unusual conditions, such as a bumper crop, a major construction project
(e.g., a defense facility, nuclear plant, or dam), or a catastrophe (e.g., a tornado or
drought). In some cases, a high per capita income is not representative of the
standard of living in an area. For example, a construction project may attract a large
number of highly paid workers who are included in the population but who send a
substantial portion of their wages to dependents living in other areas. Conversely, a
county with a large institutional population (e.g., residents of a college, correctional
institution, or domiciliary medical facility) may show an unusually low per capita
income, which is not necessarily indicative of the economic well-being of the
noninstitutional population.
Moreover, population is measured at midyear, whereas income is measured as a
flow over the year; therefore, a significant change in population during the year,
particularly around midyear, can cause a distortion in the per capita figures.
In counties where farm income predominates, additional considerations should be
taken into account. Farm proprietors’ income, as measured for personal income,
reflects returns from current production; it does not measure current cash flows.
Sales out of inventories, though included in current gross farm income, are excluded
from net farm income because they represent income from a previous year's
production. Additions to inventories are included in net farm income at current
market prices; therefore, farmers’ attempts at regulating their cash flows by
adjusting inventories are not reflected in BEA’s farm proprietors' income estimates.
Yet it is this regulation of cash flows by farmers that extends their earnings cycle and
allows them to survive losses or lowered income for 2 or 3 years.
In counties that are characterized by small population and almost total depen­
dence upon farming, the per capita income will react more sharply to the vagaries in

weather, world market demand, and changing government policies related to agricul­
ture than In counties where the sources of income are more diversified.1
It should be noted that the substantial differences between BEA estimates of per
capita income and Census Bureau estimates are due to differences in definition of
income, collection mode, and method of computation. For example, the Census
Bureau computes 1979 per capita income by dividing 1979 total money income by
April 1980 total population, whereas BEA derives its 1979 per capita income by
dividing 1979 total personal income by July 1979 total population.

Relationship between the national and regional estimates
The definitions underlying the State and local area estimates are, for the most
part, the same as those underlying the personal income estimates in the NIPA’s. The
major difference is in the treatment of U.S. citizens temporarily working on assign­
ment abroad. The national estimates include not only Federal personnel— civilian and
military— stationed abroad, but also U.S. residents employed by private U.S. firms on
temporary foreign assignment. The State and local area estimates include only
persons working and/or residing in the 50 States and the District of Columbia.
International border workers are treated somewhat differently in the State and
local area personal income estimates than they are in the national estimates, but the
net effect on TPI is the same. Further information on border workers is included in the
section on the residence adjustment in part II of the detailed methodology in volume
1.
Another difference between the national and regional accounts relates to the
classification of income into farm and nonfarm categories. In the national accounts,
farm personal income consists of farm earnings and agricultural net interest; in the
regional accounts, farm personal income equals farm earnings.
The national estimate for each individual component of personal income is used as
a control total for the State estimates; i.e., the State estimates when summed to an
all-State total must equal the national estimate of the same item (modified, where
necessary, for differences in definition). Similarly, the county estimates when
summed must equal the related State estimate.
Revisions.— The local area estimates of personal Income released in each April
issue of the SURVEY are consistent with the State estimates published in the same
issue. The State estimates are preliminary annual and quarterly estimates for the
most recent year (for which local area estimates are not available) and revised
annual estimates for earlier years. The revised State estimates supersede the
estimates published in the preceding August Issue of the SURVEY. The State and local
area estimates are routinely revised in at least each of the 2 years following their
initial release. The State revisions occur twice each year. These revisions incorporate
more complete information for States and local areas, as well as revised national
totals.
Comprehensive revisions are initiated periodically— approximately every 5 years— at
the national level and extended, where appropriate, to the State and local area
levels. The comprehensive revisions at the State and local area levels include
distributional changes made possible by availability of new or more current data as
well as the definitional, classificational, and statistical changes at the national level.
The most recent comprehensive revisions were presented and described at the
national level in the December 1980 SURVEY:; at the State level in the July 1981
SURVEY, and at the local level in the 1975-80 edition of Local Area Personal Income.
The estimates presented in this edition reflect routine revisions back though 1977.

an explicit deduction); (2) personal income includes greater component detail
and a broader range of income-in-kind and Imputed income items; and (3) the
definition of transfer payments is expanded to include transfers by business.
During the sixties, work on the development of quarterly estimates of State
personal income was completed. The first set of State quarterly estimates as a
continuous series was published in the December 1966 issue of the SURVEY.
BEA began work on sub-State estimates in the midfifties, but the estimates were
confined to a relatively small number of counties in the mideastern and plains States.
This work on local area measurement was expanded In the midsixties, and resulted In
a historical series of personal income for selected years 1929-62 for the SMSA’s and
for the non-SMSA counties. Estimates for counties within SMSA’s were developed in
the early seventies and published for the first time in the April 1975 SURVEY. BEA now
prepares annual estimates of personal income and related (unpublished) estimates
of employment for each of the SMSA's and all of the more than 3,100 counties and
county equivalents in the United States.

Characteristics

Geographic structure.— Estimates are prepared independently for States and
counties only. Estimates for all other geographic areas below the State level are made
by aggregating the county estimates In the appropriate combinations. This building
block approach provides BEA with the flexibility necessary for meeting the needs of
the wide variety of users of local area data. It also permits estimates for areas whose
boundaries change over time— such as SMSA's— to be presented on a consistent
geographic definition for all years for analytic purposes. Because estimates are made
only for local areas that can be defined in terms of counties, the metropolitan areas
for the New England States in BEA’s local area personal income series are not the
officially designated SMSA's, but rather the alternative NECMA’s developed by OMB.
Whereas New England SMSA’s are defined In terms of cities and towns, the NECMA’s
are approximations of SMSA’s in terms of counties. (A more detailed description of
the NECMA’s is included in appendix A In volume 1.)
Scope and timing of source materials.— The estimates are constructed from
nearly 400 individually estimated income items based on data gathered from diverse
sources. The bulk of the materials used to prepare the estimates is data generated as
the byproduct of Federal and State government programs (administrative records
data). The remainder comes from the various censuses and from nongovernment
sources. Among the more important sources of the administrative record data used
by BEA are the State unemployment programs of the Employment and Training
Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor, the insurance programs of the U.S.
Social Security Administration (SSA ), and the Federal tax program of the U.S.
Department of the Treasury. The two most important censuses utilized are are those
for agriculture and population. The Information obtained from administrative records
and censuses yields more than 90 percent of the data needed for the preparation of
the State and local area Income estimates.
BEA supplements these basic statistics with data of lesser quality, scope, and
relevance. To adjust for gaps and deficiencies in the poorer quality data, indirect
procedures and judgments are sometimes employed. The Impact of these indirect
procedures and judgments on the reliability of the individual State and local area
estimates has varied over the 53-year estimating span because of regional differ­
ences and changes in industrial composition. It is not possible, therefore, to provide
measures of the error introduced into the income estimates by the indirect proce­
dures.

The allocation procedure.— The estimates of State and local area personal income
supplement their income from nonfarm sources. Since 1974, the national averages indicate
are characterized by the systematic use of the allocation procedure in their prepara­
that, for families operating farms with sales under $20,000, off-farm income has exceeded
tion. The State estimates are made by allocating the U.S. total for each income item

LOCAL AREA PERSONAL INCOME

(estimated for the national personal Income series) to the States in proportion to
each State’s share of a related economic series. In a similar manner, the State
estimates are allocated to the counties in proportion to each county's share of a
related economic series. In some cases, national, State, and county estimates are
constructed from the same basic source, as for example, wages and salaries reported
under the various State unemployment insurance (Ul) programs. In other cases, data
that are available at the national and State levels are not available at the county
level, and allocators prepared from related, but indirect, data are used to reflect the
geographic distribution of the income item among the counties. An example of this is
veterans’ payments. At the national and State levels, direct information is available
on payments to veterans under various government programs, but for many of these
programs, such information is not tabulated at the county level. Where the direct
data are not available, county veteran population, an indirect allocator, is used to
distribute the State total to the counties.
The use of the State estimates as control totals in conjunction with the allocation
procedure imparts additional reliability to the county estimates because most
components of personal income can be estimated more reliably for States than for
smaller geographic areas. It also permits, if necessary, the use of a different
allocator, in each State, to distribute an income item to the counties without
impairing the interstate comparability of the estimates.
Electronic edit procedures.— In making the estimates, several million administra­
tive records are put into the system annually. Although these records are usually
encoded and processed by the agency administering the program generating these
records (thereby reducing the cost to BEA in terms of time and labor), there are still
possibilities for error in the data. Because it is not possible to verify each individual
record or accept the various administrative record files at their face value, BEA has
developed several computerized edit routines to locate major errors in the source
materials, either directly or through examination of preliminary estimates based on
the sources. At many stages of the estimating process, data are collected and
arrayed for visual inspection in patterns designed to give the analyst a frame of
reference for judging the quality of the data. At some stages, the data are screened by
computer, and only items that exceed specified edit parameters are flagged for
further review. An example is the “6-year average wage check" used to screen the
estimates of wages and salaries together with the companion employment series.
This routine lists the records (2-digit SIC industries) where, for at least 1 year, the
average wage exceeds edit parameters. The edit parameters are established sepa­
rately for each industry group. A higher limit is used for mining, construction, and
finance than for the other groups of industries. When an important anomaly is
discovered in the data, and when it cannot be traced to an explicit error in BEA’s data
processing and estimating procedures, the matter may be referred back to the
agency that supplied the source data. Alternatively, a more reasonable estimate may
be prepared from another data source.

METHODOLOGY

decisionmaking and for the implementation of programs requiring an analysis of the
economic activities or the economic well-being of the residents of a particular area.
In recent years, there has been an increasing use of personal income (or a
derivative) as a variable in formulas for allocating Federal funds to States and local
areas and for determining the amount of matching funds for Federal-State programs.
The personal income estimates (State and county) are the basic source of the money
income series prepared by BEA for the Census Bureau’s intercensal per capita money
income estimates required for the General Revenue Sharing Program.2 A partial list of
other Federal programs using BEA’s personal income statistics for the allocation of
Federal funds or for determining matching grants includes the National School Lunch
program, various U.S. Public Health Service rehabilitation programs (including drug
abuse prevention and treatment of alcoholics), U.S. Department of Education grant
programs (as, for example, vocational education and libraries), the Medical Assist­
ance program (Medicaid), and the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC)
program.
Personal income is also one of the measures used in evaluating the socioeconomic
impact of many Federal programs. It is widely used by Federal agencies in preparing
environmental impact statements required by the National Environmental Policy Act
of 1969 and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976.
Federal agencies use estimates of local area personal income as input into
econometric models for projecting program needs. For example, the Food and
Nutrition Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), uses them to project the
number of persons eligible for domestic food programs; the U.S. Department of
Energy uses them to produce indicators in an energy demand forecast model; and the
U.S. Water Resources Council uses them to project the future regional requirements
from the Nation's water resources.
State and local governments have also increased their use of the personal income
estimates. The estimates are being used as input in economic resource profiles and in
econometric models developed for planning purposes. They are often used to project
tax revenues and future needs for public services. Legislation that limits a State’s
expenditures or tax authority by the level of, or changes in, State personal income
has been enacted, or is pending, in a number of States.
University schools of business and economics, often working under contract for
State and local governments, reproduce BEA personal income data in statistical
abstracts or similar reports. These publications are distributed to local government
agencies, regional councils, private research groups, businesses, and individuals
within the service region.
Businesses also use the estimates of local area personal income. For example,
they are used to evaluate additional or alternative market areas for established
products, to forecast prospects for marketing new products, to determine areas for
relocation or decentralization, and to analyze comparative production costs in
relation to the consumer ability to pay.

Applications
Because of their depth of component detail, geographic flexibility, and annual
availability, BEA's estimates of personal income and derivative measures have a
broad range of application. They are widely used in both the public and private
sectors. In general, they are used to measure and track the levels and types of income
flows received or earned by individuals residing or working in a specific political
subdivision or microeconomy. They provide a local area data base for economic

2
Money income differs from personal income as follows: money income excludes Income-inkind, Imputed income, and income of quasi-individuals— which are included in the personal
income definition. Furthermore, it includes items that are excluded from the personal income
definition— income from private pensions and annuities, cash benefits from private workmen’s
compensation insurance, regular contributions for support received from individuals not
residing in the same living quarters, income received from roomers and boarders residing in
households, and employee contributions for social insurance.

PART II.— SOURCES AND METHODS
Wage and salary disbursements
Wage and salary disbursements consist of monetary remuneration of employees
including compensation of corporate officers; commissions, tips, and bonuses; and
pay-in-kind that represents income to the recipients. Retroactive wages are counted
when paid rather than when earned.
Private nonfarm.— In a typical State, approximately 95 percent of private, non­
farm payrolls come under the State’s Ul program. Under the program, every firm
covered by Ul is required to report to the State’s ESA the wages and salaries paid its
employees In the preceding quarter. These reports are tabulated by county and
summed by industry (at the 2-digit SIC level). The quarterly tabulations, in which the
individual firm’s report is no longer identifiable, are furnished to BEA, where they are
summed to annual totals, by industry, for each county.
Elements of payroll excluded from coverage— such as tips or small segments of an
industry—are estimated independently at the State level and added to the Ul-reported data

for the appropriate industry.3 The BEA State estimates of wages and salaries in each
industry are then allocated among the constituent counties in direct proportion to
the related county distribution of the Ul-reported data to yield the final county
estimates.
Independent estimates of wages of contract farm laborers, based on the geo­
graphic distribution of expenditures for contract labor reported in the 1974 Census of
Agriculture, are added to the Ul-reported payrolls in agricultural services. Most State
Ul programs do not cover these workers; a few have partial coverage. Adjustments to
avoid double-counting are made to the Ul tabulations where appropriate.
Industries presently treated as noncovered at the county level are private
households, railroads, and “other.” State totals of wages and salaries of workers in

3 TFie value of pay-in-kind is included in the Ul payroll tabulations. However, because it is
not reported separately by the employers, it cannot be Isolated from cash pay.

number of persons employed in the industry and their average income; the underlying
data are from the 1970 Census of Population. Data from the 1980 Census of
Population will be incorporated as soon as they become available.
County estimates of wages and salaries of railroad workers are based primarily on
the geographic distribution of railroad workers obtained from biennial employment
reports of the Association of American Railroads. The use of employment as a county
distributor of wages is more acceptable in the case of railroads than for most
industries because the regional differences in wage rates are minimized by the
tendency to negotiate wages in the railroad industry on a nationwide basis.
Other is the designation used in the State and local area level accounts to reflect
U.S. residents employed by international organizations and foreign embassies and
consulates located in the United States. It differs from the “ rest of the world”
designation in the NIPA’s to the extent that the latter also includes international
border workers. The treatment of border workers in the local area estimates is
included in the description of the residence adjustment at the end of the method­
ological section.
Farm.— Estimates of cash wages of hired farm labor, pay-in-kind, and the salaries
of officers of corporate farms are made separately, based on related county data
from the 1974 Census of Agriculture.
Civilian government.— County estimates of Federal civilian and State and local
government wages are now based on Ul data in most cases. (State and local
governments came under full Ul coverage in January 1978). Where Ul data are not
used, estimates of Federal civilian wages are based mainly on data from the Office of
Personnel Management (OPM), and State government wage estimates are based on
census of governments data. For a discussion of the estimates for earlier years for
each level of government in each State, the reader is referred to volume 1.
The 1977-81 estimates of Federal civilian wages and salaries in all but three States
are based on data from the Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees
(UCFE) program. In three States, the estimates are based on OPM annual employ­
ment data for each major Federal agency by county, weighted by the agency's
average salary in the State (calculated from UCFE data).4
The 1978-81 county estimates of State government wages and salaries in all but
eight States are based on Ul wage data. In the remaining eight States, the county
estimates are based on the distribution of full-time State government employees
reported in the 1967 Census of Governments.5 The 1978-81 county estimates of local
government wages and salaries are based on Ul data in all States except Illinois.
Military.— Wages and salaries of full-time military personnel are derived in two
parts, cash pay (including allowances) and pay-in-kind. The 1979-81 estimates for
both components are based on 1980 Department of Defense (DOD) estimates of
military payrolls by branch of service and on a distribution of Coast Guard military
strength prepared by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Independently derived
national and State totals for each branch of service were distributed to counties on
the basis of the DOD payroll estimates. The 1979 estimates were extended back
through 1977 based on DOD annual military strength data for major installations. The
estimates for earlier years have not been revised. This break in methodology and data
sources between 1976 and 1977 results in discontinuities in the military wage and
salary estimates. In some instances, there are discontinuities in TPI. These cases are
noted on the relevant tables. The estimates prior to 1977 will be revised to be
consistent with the current estimates at a later date.
Military reserve pay (including pay-in-kind) is estimated for counties by allocating
State estimates (based on DOD data) in proportion to the geographic distribution of
civilian resident population.

Other labor income
Other labor income (OLI) consists almost entirely of employer contributions to
private pension and welfare funds, employers’ payments for privately administered
workmen's compensation insurance, and directors’ fees. County estimates of contri­
butions to welfare funds are estimated, in industrial detail, by allocating the State
estimates in proportion to the geographic distribution of employment in each
industry. Directors’ fees, contributions to pension funds, and payments for privately
administered workmen’s compensation insurance are estimated, in industrial detail,
in proportion to the geographic distribution of wages and salaries in the related
industry.

' The three States for which the county estimates for all years are based on OPM data are
Hawaii, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.
'The eight States for which 1967 Census of Governments data were used for all years
are Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and
Wisconsin.

IX

Proprietors' income is the monetary income and income-in-kind of proprietorships
and partnerships, including producers’ cooperatives. It is treated in its entirety as
received by individuals. Dividends and interest received by proprietors and income
from the rental of real property received by persons who are not primarily engaged in
the real estate business are excluded from proprietors’ income. (They are included in
dividends, interest, and rent.)
Nonfarm proprietors’ income.— The estimates of proprietors' income for many
industries are benchmarked on U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) data on the
self-employed. These data are tabulated from the Social Security Self-Employment
Tax forms filed by proprietors of unincorporated businesses. The self-employment
data are presently incorporated into the estimates of nonfarm proprietors’ income
for all major industries in 18 States. For the remaining 32 States, the IRS selfemployment data are only incorporated into the estimates for trade and services
(which together account for approximately 70 percent of all nonfarm proprietors’
income). The estimates of proprietors’ income for the other nonfarm industries, in
the 32 States, are based on 1962 IRS-based benchmarks that have been extrapolated
to the later years by County Business Patterns data on the number of small
establishments by industry and county.
Nonfarm proprietors’ income is estimated for States and counties inclusive of the
inventory valuation adjustment (IVA) and the capital consumption adjustment
(CCAdj). Unlike the national personal income series, the State and local personal
income series provide no separate estimates of either adjustment (because of
insufficient related data below the national level). The IVA and CCAdj are necessary
because the business accounting conventions used for tax-reporting purposes are not
appropriate for personal income measurement. The IVA changes the value of inven­
tory charged to cost of sales from original cost to current market value. Somewhat
similarly, the CCAdj adjusts the value of capital consumption allowances (CCA) from
original cost to replacement cost and, additionally, adjusts the service lives of fixed
capital assets from the tax reporting convention to a consistent economic basis.
The county estimates of the net income of rural electric and telephone coopera­
tives are based on data from the annual report of the Rural Electrification Administra­
tion. The estimates for the electric cooperatives reflect the distribution of metering
points within the service area of each cooperative (including the county in which the
cooperative is located). For the telephone cooperatives, the estimates reflect the
distribution of the dwellings of the customer-members.
Farm proprietors' income.— The net income of farm proprietors is computed as
the gross income of all farm operators minus total production expenses. It is adjusted
to reflect current production through a change-in-inventory adjustment and to
exclude the net income of corporate farms and the salaries paid to the corporate
officers.
Farm proprietors’ income estimates are benchmarked on data collected in the
1974 Census of Agriculture and USDA State totals of income and expense items.
However, the USDA estimates of the CCA for noncorporate farms are changed from a
declining-balance basis (used by the USDA) to a straight-line basis (consistent with
BEA’s estimates of CCA for nonfarm industries).
County distributions of 19 components of gross income and 13 items of production
expense are used to allocate annual USDA-based State totals of the corresponding
series. County allocators for the postcensal years are prepared by modifying the
benchmark county distributions of the various income and expense items by direct
information obtained from the States wherever possible. Distributions for which no
current direct data are available are either held constant or moved forward by an
indirect, but related, series for which county data are available.
By definition, farm proprietors' income includes only the income of proprietor­
ships and partnerships; therefore, an adjustment is made to exclude the net farm
income of corporate farms (including the salaries of officers of corporate farms).
The corporate officer salaries are included in the farm wage component of personal
income. The corporate adjustment is proportional to corporate farm acreage in each
county reported in the 1974 Census of Agriculture.

Dividends, interest, and rent
Dividends are cash payments by corporations organized for profit to stockholders
who are U.S. residents. Interest is the monetary and imputed interest income of
persons from all sources. Rent is the monetary income of persons from the rental of
real property, and mobile homes, except the income of persons primarily engaged in
the real estate business (which is classified as nonfarm proprietors’ income); the
imputed net rental income of owner-occupants of nonfarm dwellings (including
mobile homes); and the royalties received by persons from patents, copyrights, and
rights to natural resources.
County estimates of dividends and of monetary interest are based on the amounts
reported to the IRS and tabulated from its Individual Master File (IMF). County

X

LOCAL AREA PERSONAL INCOME

estimates of net monetary rental income (inclusive of the CCAdj) reflect IMF
tabulations of gross rent. In the absence of direct data, the estimates of royalties are
based on the county distributions of monetary interest.
Imputed rental income accruing to residents of owner-occupied nonfarm dwellings
is derived by allocating the State totals to counties by the distribution of the value of
owner-occupied homes, constructed from data reported in the 1970 Census of
Housing. State totals for postcensal years are disaggregated to counties on the basis
of the benchmark distributions. The county estimates of imputed rental income from
owner-occupied mobile homes are estimated separately, based on the geographic
distribution of the number of mobile homes and trailers reported in the 1970 Census
of Housing. Data from the 1980 Census of Housing will be incorporated later.

Transfer payments
Transfer payments to persons are income flows from both government and
business— for which services are not currently rendered. Government transfer
payments include payments under the following programs: Federal oldage, survivors,
disability, and hospital insurance; supplementary medical insurance; State Ul; rail­
road retirement and Ul; government retirement; Federal and State governmentinsured workmen’s compensation; veterans benefits, including veterans life insurance; food
stamps; black lung; supplemental security income; and direct relief. Government
payments to nonprofit institutions, other than for work under research and develop­
ment contracts, are also included. The principal business transfers are liability
payments for personal injury, corporate gifts to nonprofit, institutions and consumer
bad debts.
Total transfer payments are measured as the sum of over 50 separately estimated
series. Directly reported data are used to measure about three-fourths of all
transfers, although the proportion varies among local areas. Reliable indirect indi­
cators— such as veteran population, which is used to allocate selected components
of veterans benefits— are available for many of the remaining transfers.

Contributions for social insurance
Personal contributions for social insurance include payments by employees,
self-employed, and other individuals who participate in the following programs:
Federal old-age, survivors, disability, and hospital insurance; supplementary medical
insurance; State Ul; railroad retirement; government retirement; and veterans life
insurance.
In general, the State totals are allocated to counties by the wages and salaries or
proprietors' income component. Exceptions to this general procedure are contribu­
tions to veterans life insurance— allocated by veteran population; contributions to
State Ul and temporary disability programs (applicable in only a few States)— allocated by
civilian population; and supplementary medical insurance— allocated by the number
of persons enrolled in the program.

Residence adjustment
Wage and salary disbursements, OLI, and personal contributions for social insur­
ance, except several minor subcomponents, are estimated from data that are
reported by place of work.6 The sum of the personal income components estimated on
a place-of-work basis, which is referred to as “income subject to adjustment” (ISA),
is adjusted to a place-of-residence basis for personal income measurement. The
residence adjustments are measured as the income of residents of the subject county
who work in another county ( “inflows” ) minus the income of residents of other
counties who work in the subject county ("outflows” ).
The 1977-81 residence adjustment estimates were prepared by updating and
extending the 1977-80 estimates presented in the previous issue of this publication.
6 Proprietors’ income is treated as being on a place-of-residence basis, although there
are indications that, for many urban counties, proprietors’ income reflects a mix of place
of work and place of residence.

METHODOLOGY

A simplified approach was used because no new information on intercounty com­
muting was available. Direct commuting information is most recently available from
the 1970 Census of Population. Residential data that indirectly indicate commuting
changes for 1981 (wages and salaries reported to IRS) will not be available to BEA
until later in 1983.
The simplified approach used for the 1981 estimates assumed no change in
intercounty commuting rates from 1980 to 1981. The ratio of 1980 net residence
adjustments to 1980 ISA (net adjustment ratio) was applied to 1981 ISA and forced
to sum to independently derived totals for BEA economic areas.' The results were
reviewed and modified for cases where large changes in ISA indicated that the
no-commuting-change assumption may have been invalid. The following paragraphs
describe the estimation procedures for the previous (1970-80) estimates, upon
which the current estimates are based. The same methodology, restricted to com­
muting flows between counties in different economic areas, was used to construct
the economic area totals used as controls in the simplified methodology.
Intercounty flows of commuters’ earnings were estimated for each
year by applying commuting ratios from the 1970 Census of
Population to the ISA for the current year, for each county. The
resulting flows were summed to a preliminary inflow, outflow, and
residence adjustment for each county. The preliminary adjust­
ments were reviewed and modified for cases where the 1970
commuting rates and patterns appeared to have changed.8 A
number of data sources indicating economic and demographic
changes for county residents were used to identify the size and
direction of modifications that were made to the preliminary
adjustments. The most important of these sources were currentyear population estimates from the Census Bureau, and IRS tabula­
tions of wages and salaries by county of residence, which are
available to BEA every other year, with approximately a 2-year
time lag (the most recent data available are for 1979).
The residence adjustment procedure used for Alaska differed
somewhat from the foregoing methodology. Because of the unusually
large number of out-of-State workers employed in a variety of
industries in Alaska (for example, the construction industry—
particularly during the building of the pipeline), special proce­
dures were developed to reflect the unique characteristics.
International border workers are treated as commuters in the
State and local area personal income series; therefore, their
earnings are reflected through the residence adjustment. The
outflow of earnings of foreign workers (Canadian, Mexican, and
Caribbean) was estimated on the basis of data from the U.S.
Immigration and Naturalization Service, the U.S. Department of
Labor, and the 1974 Census of Agriculture. The small Amounts of
earnings of U.S. residents commuting to work in Canada and the
United Kingdom (inflows) were assigned to States and counties on
a judgment basis.
A more complete description of the residence adjustment procedures and the
problems involved is included in the detailed “Sources and Methods” published in
volume 1.
'The BEA econrmic areas are 183 groupings of economically related counties that cover the
entire United States. For a more detailed discussion, see appendix B in volume 1 in the 1974-79
issue of this publication.
1 Intercounty commuting data are available only from the decennial census. It was not
possible, therefore, to update the 1970 commuting rates directly. Commuting rates from the
1980 census will be available in 1983 and introduced in the residence adjustments during 1984.

FOOTNOTES
D Not shown to avoid disclosure of confidential information; data are included in
totals.
L Less than $50,000; data are included in totals.
1Total personal income less farm earnings (labor and proprietors’ income) equals
nonfarm personal income.
'Consists of wage and salary disbursements, other labor income, and proprietors'
income. Wages and salaries based upon data furnished by individual bureaus of
employment security.
'Adjustment for international border workers: income of U.S. residents working
outside the United States, less income of foreign residents working in the United States.
* Includes the capital consumption adjustment for rental income of persons.
s Includes the capital consumption adjustment for nonfarm proprietors.
6 Includes wages and salaries of U.S. residents working for international organiza­
tions in the United States.
’ Far West Region totals exclude Alaska and Hawaii.
8 The estimates for Federal military earnings have been revised for the years
1977-81. The new methodology utilizes improved data sources. In some instances,
the estimates for years prior to 1977 are not consistent with those for 1977-81. For a
more detailed explanation, see discussion in part II of the methodology section.
8 The revised estimates of 1977-81 Federal military earnings for this area are
sufficiently different from the estimates for earlier years that a discontinuity in the
time series between 1976 and 1977 exists for total and per capita personal income,
as well as for Federal military earnings (labor and proprietors’ income), government
earnings, nonfarm earnings, and total earnings. See footnote 8.
