Monetary costs to taxpayers. The price of prisoners can vary greatly from state to state. Among the 40 states surveyed in the 2012 report by the Vera Institute of Justice, the average annual per-inmate cost was $31,286. Topping the list was New York with an average annual cost per prisoner of $60,076. In total, Vera researchers found that the annual price to taxpayers was $39 billion. Thatâs $5.4 billion more than the $33.5 billion provided by corrections budgets. The Vera report emphasizes that per-inmate costs can tell you the number of dollars spent, but not the effectiveness of that spending.
