Missouri State Auditor
Honorable Jeremiah W. (Jay) Nixon, Governor and Members of the General Assembly Jefferson City, Missouri The following benchmark report is the result of research conducted by the University of Missouri, Harry S Truman School of Public Affairs that has been presented to, and reviewed by the Missouri State Auditor's office. The objective of this report was to present compiled comparative data on a vast array of policy issue areas to: 1. 2. Provide comparative information to Missouri legislators, other elected officials, and citizens. Without comment, or drawing conclusions, allow the comparative data and rankings to stand alone as indicators. Publish the report in a technical format that provides information, and trends when classifiable, without presumptions or findings.

3.

Many policy makers have found that monitoring performance indicators can provide valuable information when it comes to policy development, as well as government action. Similar reports conducted elsewhere have been helpful in providing a snap shot as to where states are positioned in relation to each other in critical areas dealing with the economy, healthcare, crime, education, transportation, and civic involvement. Comparative analysis can serve to help measure progress made in relation to others and is becoming increasingly more important for generally establishing the direction states are headed in a variety of policy areas. Also, because statistical information is constantly evolving, updated information can almost always be found from sources drawn upon in this report, as well as from other qualified monitoring sources. This report was completed in coordination with the University of Missouri - Columbia, Harry S Truman School of Public Affairs, and prepared under the direction of Matt Beckmann, MBA, JD, of the State Auditor's office (SAO). Key contributors to this report included SAO staff Robert Showers, CPA; and of the Harry S Truman School of Public Affairs, David Valentine, PhD.

Missouri Statewide Performance Indicators: A National Comparison

Economy
Household Median Income - The median household income is the amount which divides households into two equal groups, one having incomes above that amount and the other having incomes below that amount. The data was provided by the Census Bureau. In 2009, Missouri ranked 27th. Job Growth and Unemployment Rate, US and Missouri - Job growth statistics represent the growth in the number of jobs in the state. Job growth data shown is relative to a year 2000 baseline. Unemployment rate data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics is obtained by conducting a monthly sample survey called the Current Population Survey (CPS) to measure the extent of unemployment in the country. There are approximately 110,000 individuals included in the survey. The CPS sample is selected so as to be representative of the entire population of the United States. The survey is designed so that each person age 16 and over who is neither in an institution (for example, correctional facilities and residential nursing and mental health care facilities) nor on active duty in the Armed Forces is counted and classified in only one group. The sum of the employed and the unemployed constitutes the civilian labor force. The chart includes job growth and the unemployment rate for Missouri and the United States from 2000 to 2010. The data was provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. State Tax Burden as a Percentage of Personal Income - The amount of state taxes collected, divided by personal income. The data was provided by the Federation of Tax Administrators. In 2010, Missouri ranked 44th. State Cigarette Tax - The amount of tax levied, in dollars, by a state on the sale of a pack of cigarettes. The data was provided by the National Conference of State Legislatures. In 2010, Missouri ranked 51st. Percent of Population in Poverty - The percent of the population that has a yearly income below the federal poverty level. The data was provided by the Census Bureau. In 2009, Missouri ranked 20th. Percent of Children in Poverty - The percent of children under age 18 that live in a household whose yearly income is below the federal poverty level. The data was provided by the Census Bureau. In 2009, Missouri ranked 20th.
