Per capita income in 2011 is $43,671.
"Constant" dollars are adjusted for inflation using the consumer price
index. "Actual" dollars are not adjusted for inflation. Minnesota Government
in Brief graphs typically
adjust previous years' amounts into 2011 dollars, since readers are more
immediately familiar with what a dollar can purchase today than with what a
dollar could have purchased five, ten, or more years ago. The inflation
adjustment shows that $1 in 2011 could purchase the same amount of goods and services
as $1.30 in
2001.
