Per Capita Earned Income, 1999 As the term implies, earned income is income derived from earned wages
or salaries. Counties with the highest per capita earned income are found
in the Twin Cities metropolitan area and in Olmsted County, while some
pockets of higher income exist in rural areas. The lowest incomes are
found in counties where the economy is dominated by low-paying service,
agricultural and other natural-resource related jobs. |
