US States by GDP (Gross Domestic Product) (2025)

Data: BEA GDP by State, 2025 Updated: Source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis CSV

Gross domestic product (GDP) is the market value of all goods and services produced in a state in a year: the standard measure of the size of its economy. This ranking uses the Bureau of Economic Analysis' official state GDP in current dollars, with each state's real (inflation-adjusted) growth rate and its share of the national economy.

In 2025, California had the largest economy at $4,297.5B, and Vermont the smallest at $49.7B. The United States total was $30,861.3B. Economy size mostly tracks population, so compare with the state population ranking, or look at the growth column to see which economies are expanding fastest.

Methodology

BEA table SAGDP1 (state annual GDP summary): line 3, current-dollar GDP in millions of dollars (shown here in billions), and line 1, real GDP in chained 2017 dollars, from which we compute the 1-year real growth rate (latest year over the previous year in the same release). State GDP is the sum of value added by all industries in the state, measured where production takes place. BEA revises earlier years with each annual release. Share of US is each state's GDP divided by the 50-state-plus-DC total shown here; the national figure also includes overseas federal activity not assigned to any state, so state values do not add up exactly to the US total.

Puerto Rico and other US territories are not included. Rankings use competition ranking: tied values share a rank.

Frequently asked questions

Which state has the largest economy?

California, with GDP of $4,297.5B in 2025.

Which state has the smallest economy?

Vermont, at $49.7B.

What is the difference between nominal and real GDP?

Nominal (current-dollar) GDP is measured in each year's prices, so it rises with inflation. Real GDP removes price changes, so its growth rate shows how much more the economy actually produced. The ranking uses current dollars; the growth column uses real GDP.

How often is state GDP updated?

BEA publishes quarterly state GDP about three months after each quarter and a comprehensive annual update each autumn. This page shows 2025, the latest full year available.
