Big Mac prices are statewide averages scraped from MenuPriceTracker, which samples McDonald's app prices per location. National average $5.91. DC has no state page there, so it shows as no data.
Gas prices are AAA's statewide averages for a gallon of regular as of October 3, 2026, from AAA Fuel Prices. Diesel is shown in the tooltip and table. National average $4.40.
Sales tax is the state rate plus the population-weighted average local rate as of July 1, 2026, from the Tax Foundation. Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon have none; Alaska has only local sales taxes.
Minimum wage is the state's basic rate from the EPI Minimum Wage Tracker, re-read daily and checked against the US Department of Labor; where a state has no law or a rate below $7.25, the federal $7.25 is shown. City and county rates come from the same tracker; each state shows its highest local rate, and a city's own rate appears in its panel.
Refineries are operable petroleum refineries by state from the EIA Refinery Capacity Report 2026, with data as of January 1, 2026: count operating, count idle, and atmospheric crude distillation capacity in barrels per calendar day. The report is annual.
Income tax is the top marginal individual rate for 2026 from the Tax Foundation. Washington taxes capital gains at 7–9% but has no tax on wages, so it is shown as no income tax. New Hampshire repealed its interest and dividends tax in 2025.
Cost of living is the composite index from the Missouri Economic Research and Information Center's Cost of Living Data Series for 2026 Q2, where the US average is 100. Housing is the index's housing component.
2024 vote is the statewide presidential margin, Trump share minus Harris share, from the certified results compiled on Wikipedia. Maine and Nebraska are shown statewide, not by congressional district. The Golden Arches and other marks belong to their owners and appear only to identify the data.
