Virgin Islands (US) GDP per capita rose from 30,062.02 in 2002 to a peak of 44,320.91 in 2022, placing the territory 32nd globally in the latest World Bank ranking. This 47.4 percent increase over two decades reflects sustained growth in services, tourism and financial activities, outpacing many small economies. The 2022 level is slightly below the United Kingdom’s 47,057.04 and Andorra’s 42,414.05, indicating that the Virgin Islands remain competitive among high‑income jurisdictions despite its modest population. The upward trajectory has been steady, with no recorded declines during the 21‑year span, suggesting resilience to external shocks that have affected other Caribbean economies. Looking ahead, continued diversification of the tourism sector and investment in digital services could reinforce the positive trend, while any major disruption to travel or fiscal policy changes in the United States could alter the territory’s growth path.
