    Mississippi
    As of 2017, the median household in Mississippi earned $42,009, compared to a national median of just under $61,372. The state's 2019 unemployment rate was 8.8%, significantly higher than the national rate of 3.8%. In addition to the lowest median household income, Mississippi had the nation's highest poverty rate in 2019 at 21.5%. The latter figure suggests that, on average, more than one out of five four-person households in the state earned less than $24,300.


    Mississippi has low educational attainment and a dearth of urban centers with high-paying jobs. Only 21.1% of the state's residents hold bachelor's degrees, compared to 30.1% of people nationally. Mississippi's largest city, Jackson, ranks 94th in the nation in MSA population.
