Total Personal Income Growth and Change, 1969-2022
Introduction
McCone County vs. Montana
McCone County:
2022 TPI = $90,556K
2022 Percent of State = 0.13%
Montana:
2022 TPI = $68,477,036K
2022 Percent of U.S. = 0.31%
The annual total personal incomes (TPI) estimates compiled by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, (BEA) are among the most comprehensive, consistent, comparable and timely measures of economic activity available statewide and at the national levels. Personal income estimates are also the best available local level indicator of general purchasing power, and are therefore central to tracking and comparing county patterns of economic growth and change.
The following graphs highlight trends in the pattern of growth and change in the total personal income of McCone County and Montana with comparison to the nation. The data used are those compiled by the Regional Income and Product Divisions of the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce. The 2017 constant dollar (real) estimates of total personal income reported in the tables and portrayed graphically below are determined using the Implicit Price Deflator for Personal Consumption.
Data Definition:
Personal income is the income received by persons from participation in production, plus transfer receipts from government and business, plus government interest (which is treated like a transfer receipt). It is defined as the sum of wages and salaries, supplements to wages and salaries, proprietors' income with inventory valuation and capital consumption adjustments, rental income of persons with capital consumption adjustment, personal dividend income, personal interest income, and personal current transfer receipts, less contributions for government social insurance. Because the personal income of an area represents the income that is received by, or on behalf of, all the persons who live in that area, and because the estimates of some components of personal income (wages and salaries, supplements to wages and salaries, and contributions for government social insurance) are made on a place-of-work basis, state personal income includes an adjustment for residence. The residence adjustment represents the net flow of compensation (less contributions for government social insurance) of interstate commuters.

Figure 2.
Figure 2 traces McCone County's and Montana's annual real total personal income for the period 1969-2022 to illustrate real total personal income patterns over time. During this 54-year period, McCone County's real total personal income rose from $51M in 1969 to $78M in 2022, for a net gain of $27M, or 52.50%. In comparison, Montana's real total personal income advanced from $12,448M in 1969 to $59,010M in 2022, for a net gain of $46,562M, or 374.07%.

Figure 3.
Figure 3 portrays McCone County's real total personal income growth in a broader context by offering direct comparisons across time with Montana, the United States. The growth indices shown here express each region's real total personal income in 1969 as a base figure of 100, and the real total personal incomes in later years as a percentage of the 1969 base figure. This method allows for more direct comparison of differences in real total personal income growth between regions that may differ vastly in size.
McCone County's overall real total personal income growth was 52.50% over 1969-2022 trailed Montana's increase of 374.07%, and fell below the United States' increase of 348.76%.

Figure 4.
Another interesting and insightful way of contrasting the total personal income growth of McCone County is to trace its individual percentage contributions to Montana's statewide total personal income over time, as shown in Figure 4. A rising share means a region's total personal income grew faster, or declined less, than Montana's total personal income, while a declining share shows it grew more slowly.
In 1969, McCone County's total personal income comprised 0.41% of Montana's total personal income, while in 2022 it totaled 0.13% thereby yielding a -0.28% share-shift.

Figure 6.
Over the past five decades some counties have experienced extreme swings in growth, and often such swings have tended to coincide with the decades themselves. Figure 6 again traces the annual percent change in McCone County's real total personal income since 1970, but this time they are overlayed with average growth rates for the decade of the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, and 2020-2022.
During the 1970s, McCone County's annual real total personal income growth rate averaged 5.00%. It averaged 1.74% in the 1980s, 1.15% in the 1990s, -0.09% throughout the 2000s, 2.80% in the 2010s, 7.91% thus far this decade (2020-2022).

Figure 7.
Figure 7 compares the decade average growth rates for McCone County noted in the previous graph with the corresponding decade averages for Montana and the nation. As the chart reveals, McCone County's average annual real total personal income growth outpaced Montana's average in the 1970s (5.00% vs. 4.22%), outperformed Montana's average throughout the 1980s (1.74% vs. 1.00%), fell below Montana's average in the 1990s (1.15% vs. 2.82%), lagged Montana's average during the 2000s (-0.09% vs. 3.51%), posted below Montana's average during the 2010s (2.80% vs. 3.07%), and recorded above Montana's average over the 3 year period of the current decade, 2020-2022 (7.91% vs. 4.65%).
Finally, relative to nationwide real total personal income growth trends, McCone County outpaced the nation in the 1970s (5.00% vs. 3.50%), fell below the nation over the 1980s (1.74% vs. 3.16%), recorded underneath the nation during the 1990s (1.15% vs. 3.27%), recorded underneath the nation in the 2000s (-0.09% vs. 2.06%), led the nation during the 2010s (2.80% vs. 2.72%), and outgained the nation over 2020-2022 (7.91% vs. 2.10%).
