Quite a few other things too. Being 'gross', GDP includes depreciation, indirect business taxes, and income to business firms that is not passed thru to owners as interest or dividends. None of this gets into household income.

Uh, I misphrased that. Since a household usually consists of more than one capita, obviously HH incomes are going to be higher than per capita ones. What I should have said is that per capita incomes reported in household surveys come in below GDP divided by population. The reason is mostly the portion of GDP accounted for by business income/investment.
