$25,000,000

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------They bought it from the Dutch for 25,000,000. However, the United States only wanted to buy St. Croix for it's oil. They did not want to buy St. Thomas or St. John, but the Dutch said they had to buy all three of the islands. So,that increased the cost of the United States Virgin Islands.

They are a self-governing territory but are not styled as a Commonwealth. Residents of the US Virgin Islands are not subject to U.S. federal income taxes on income derived from U.S. Virgin Islands sources.
