Wow. Sad to see Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio so low considering they are the nation's 3rd-, 5th-, and 7th-most populous states, respectively. I guess Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati are no longer major corporate powerhouses, and Florida punches well below its weight in terms of corporate importance.

PNC was almost there at $95B in January 2022 but it's stock has taken a massive hit over the past year.

Doesn't that just show how unique and desirable Florida actually is, since even with a lower corporate base, it's still been leading the whole nation in both net domestic and net international migration for years now? (and by far in net wealth migration for both) Not to mention how much wealth has actually been accumulated there, just by putting people under its spell for decades now. I would love to see how other states would fare if people weren't enticed as much by jobs to move to them, or to stick around longer than they have to.

You could also note that the four areas in the trillions are all either expensive (CA), northern (IL), or both (WA, NY), and that speaks to the top corporations going where highly-paid people like to work and can be more successful.

Florida is a newer state, and those states aren't exactly gaining many residents. I can only imagine what Florida would look like if A/C was invented decades earlier and if other states didn't get such a head start back in the old days. Or we're you not replying to me?

It's hard to compare any state to Florida. Got some good things going on there~!!
The Seattle area and WA have always grown at a decent clip (minus a brief plateau around 1970 and during Covid), though not at FL's level.
