Abstract: Abstract With a population of 3.7 million people, Oregon was the twenty-fourth least populous state in the United States in 2006. From 2000 to 2006 the state’s population increased by 279,359 people, and is projected to increase to 4.5 million by 2025. This 1.1% projected annual growth rate compares to the projected national average of 0.8%. The state’s 2006 per capita personal income of $33,252 was higher compared to $31,507 in 2005 and twenty-fourth lowest in the United States, some $3,377 below the national average. Per capita income in Oregon grew at an average annual rate of 2.9% from 2000 to 2006, compared to 3.5% nationally.
