It's crystal ball time again, as business solutions company Moneypenny predicts which states in the country will be in the best economic position by 2025. To compile their list, Moneypenny took existing historical data for Zillow property prices, personal income per capita, and real GDP. In analyzing the predicted value of homes across the country, Moneypenny's research found Washington at the top spot, followed by Hawaii, Massachusetts, California, and Idaho. The study determined the most affordable properties will be found in West Virginia. Massachusetts led the pack in personal income, followed by Connecticut and New York. Mississippi was predicted to have the lowest personal income per capita, with West Virginia, New Mexico, Alabama and Kentucky rounding out the bottom five. California ranks way ahead of all states in terms of predicted GDP, with a projected amount of over $3.3 trillion by 2025. Texas and New York make up the rest of the top three. Vermont and Wyoming rank the lowest. See our slideshow above for the overall wealthiest states by 2025, and click here for the full report.
