The first-year figures are $236.44 billion for Massachusetts and $138.47 billion for Connecticut. These totals measure production within each state, not residents’ earnings or disposable income. They are not adjusted for inflation, so the percentage changes mix price movements with changes in real output. Differences in population also affect total GDP; this comparison is not a per-person ranking.
