1
Start of time series is 1997.
2
Differences calculated as predicted value from states at ninetieth percentile minus predicted value from states at tenth percentile. Percent calculated as the percent change in predicted values, compared to states at the tenth percentile.
3
End of time series is 2006 for all variables except for AIDS incidence (2004) and total taxable resources per capita (2005).
