The data you quote uses median household income, gross receipts including business, and total population. The mean household income is likely even higher, but the per capita income is significantly lower, as is the inter-state disparity of the same. Importantly, there is no reliable way to estimate the impact of unreported income of illegal aliens... also do not know if the census estimates household income of illegals, or only uses reported incomes for its median value (admittedly have not searched for details on that). The data in those sources neither support nor refute your claims.

NONSENSE!

2015
Total IRS Collections:
California: $405,851,295,000
U.S.: $3,283,920,138,000

Census:
California: 38,993,940
U.S.: 320,896,618

Collections/Population
California: $10,408
U.S.: $10,234

It’s exactly, what I said!

Income has nothing whatsoever to do with my statement about average taxes being the same, but in any case the fact is, average income is higher than average in California. Their minimum wage is about 50% higher than the federal minimum wage. Are you actually disputing that? Do you have a single source that says otherwise? I certainly would like to see that!

And what do illegal criminal aliens suddenly have to with this? Their unreported income or unreported income from anyone has absolutely nothing to do with revenue being collected by the IRS!
