Corrections to CPS data dramatically change the geographic distribution of the top and bottom deciles of the income distribution. We correct the measure of real personal and household income with regional price indices from BEA. Uncorrected gures have poorer states overrepresented in the bottom decile, while corrected gures have much of that decile living in urban areas in NY and CA. We draw policy- relevant conclusions from these facts, mostly with regard to housing policy.
