Free public API

Everything on this site is available as static JSON — free, no key, CORS-enabled, cached at the edge. Attribution appreciated but not required (the underlying government data is public domain; tax data is via the Tax Foundation). Please don't hammer it — it's a static file.

Endpoints

GET /api/v1/states.jsonAll 51 states with every metric + the source registry.
GET /api/v1/states/{postal}.jsonOne state (lowercase, e.g. /api/v1/states/ca.json).
GET /api/v1/sources.jsonThe source registry alone (datasets, vintages, URLs).

Example

curl https://statenumbers.com/api/v1/states/al.json

Shape

Each state carries rpp (price parity by component), unemployment,housing (ACS), and taxes (manually maintained). Missing values arenull — never estimated. Every dataset in sources states its vintage, release, and whether it is API-sourced or manually maintained.
