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.
