METHODOLOGY NOTES (across all datasets for this indicator)

Data is inflation-adjusted by using both nominal and real data developed by Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) and appropriately escalating real GRP data in 2012 chained dollars to 2020 dollars using metropolitan statistical area (MSA)-specific Consumer Price Index data from Bureau of Labor Statistics. Economic output per capita is calculated using CA Department of Finance historical population estimates and Census historical population estimates for Metro areas.
