Oregon compared with the United States

Annual real GDP growth was 0.99 percentage points below the U.S. annual growth rate in 2025. Personal income per resident was $3,745 below the U.S. value of $77,028 in the same year. These comparisons use national observations from the same regional producer files.

The August unemployment rate was 1.0 percentage point above the national 4.1% reading. That numerical difference is not a statistical-significance claim. The 2024 price parity was 3.4% above the national benchmark. Household circumstances and local housing markets can differ from these state averages.

Employment and unemployment history

Unemployment describes eligible resident jobseekers as a share of the civilian labor force. Payroll employment describes jobs at establishments in Oregon. A commuter can live in another state; a person with multiple covered jobs can contribute multiple payroll jobs. Neither series substitutes for the other.

Largest published industries in Oregon

The table orders non-overlapping broad sectors by their 2025 current-dollar GDP in BEA SAGDP2. These shares describe production structure; they do not establish the sectors responsible for the most recent real growth. Suppressed or unavailable cells are omitted rather than reconstructed.
