40-years of supermajority Republican policy has failed working people in South Dakota [View all]

The average annual pay for South Dakotans in 2020 was $44,960, 49th in the nation (including D.C.), ahead of only Arkansas and Mississippi, the South Dakota Board of Regents reports.

This statistic is one factor in the continuing trend of ‘brain drain’ in South Dakota. Brain drain, simply put, is the phenomenon of a state’s young, college educated population leaving the state, usually for better opportunity and higher wages elsewhere.
