Oregon Household Incomes Hit Historic Highs

A new report from the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis shows job growth has tapered over the past year but is still strong enough to keep the jobless rate near historic lows.   The quarterly report also says Oregon household income, adjusted for inflation, is reaching historic highs.  Also mentioned in the report: The average Oregon tax refund  is 11% lower so far this year. That is partly due to no kicker being paid out.
