Technical information: Employment: (202)691-6559 USDL 02-610 http://www.bls.gov/sae/ Unemployment: 691-6392 http://www.bls.gov/lau/ For release: 10:00 A.M. EST Media contact: 691-5902 Wednesday, October 30, 2002 METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: SEPTEMBER 2002 In September, 231 metropolitan areas recorded higher unemployment rates than a year earlier, 78 areas had lower rates, and 22 had rates that were unchanged, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. Six metropolitan areas posted rates of at least 10.0 per- cent, all of which were located in either California's agricultural Central Valley or along the Mexican border in other states. Twenty-eight areas registered jobless rates below 3.0 percent, with 10 located in the Midwest and 10 in the South. The national unemployment rate was 5.4 percent in September, not seasonally adjusted. Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) Fifty-three metropolitan areas had rates below 3.5 percent in September, down from 72 a year earlier, while 47 areas recorded unemployment rates of at least 6.5 percent, up from 30 areas in September 2001. Fargo-Moorhead, N.D.-Minn., posted the lowest jobless rate, 1.7 percent, closely followed by Bryan-College Station, Texas, and Sioux Falls, S.D., 1.8 percent each. Yuma, Ariz., where summer jobless rates are typically twice those of the winter, continued to report the highest unemployment rate, 29.9 percent. The next highest rates were again in McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Texas (12.6 percent), and Visalia-Tulare-Porterville, Calif. (12.4 percent). Overall, 213 metropolitan areas recorded unemployment rates below the U.S. average, while 107 areas had higher rates. (See table 1 and the map.) In September, Decatur, Ill., and Wichita Falls, Texas, recorded the largest over-the-year unemployment rate increases (+2.3 percentage points each), followed by Odessa-Midland, Texas (+2.0 points). An additional 54 areas posted over-the-year rate increases of at least 1.0 percentage point. The largest jobless rate decrease from September 2001 was found in Tuscaloosa, Ala. (-2.6 percentage points). Another seven areas experienced rate declines of a full percentage point or more. Of the 51 metropolitan areas with a 1990 census population of 1 million or more, San Jose, Calif., and Miami, Fla., continued to record the highest unemployment rates, 7.7 and 7.3 percent, respectively. For the fourth consecutive month, Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va., posted the lowest job- less rate among these large areas, 3.5 percent. Hartford, Conn., and Orange County, Calif., registered the next lowest rates, 3.8 and 4.0 percent, res- pectively. Over the year, jobless rates in 46 of these large areas rose, with Columbus, Ohio, and Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Wash., recording the largest increases (+1.5 percentage points each). An additional 13 areas registered increases of at least 1.0 percentage point from last September. Five large areas did not have over-the-year increases in their unemployment rates, four of which were located in the South. - 2 - Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) Among the 274 metropolitan areas for which September nonfarm payroll data were available, 160 reported over-the-year declines in employment, 107 reported increases, and 7 had no change. The largest over-the-year employment decreases were posted in New York, N.Y. (-87,800), Chicago, Ill. (-63,200), Atlanta, Ga. (-56,400), Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Wash. (-45,000), and San Francisco, Calif. (-35,600). Much of the employment decline in New York, N.Y., can be traced to the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, ter- rorist attacks on the World Trade Center. The numbers reflect both jobs that were lost due to decreased business activity and jobs that were lost due to firms relocating elsewhere. The largest over-the-year percentage declines in employment were reported in Decatur, Ill. (-5.2 percent), Bloomington, Ind. (-5.0 percent), Sherman-Denison, Texas (-3.8 percent), Flint, Mich. (-3.6 percent), and Kokomo, Ind., and San Jose, Calif. (-3.5 percent each). (See table 2.) The largest over-the-year employment increases were recorded in Riverside- San Bernardino, Calif. (+28,400), followed by San Diego, Calif. (+21,900), Miami, Fla. (+14,600), and Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+13,500). The largest percentage increases in employment occurred in Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers, Ark. (+3.7 percent), Lawrence, Kan., and Riverside-San Bernardino, Calif. (+2.7 percent each), and McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Texas (+2.6 percent). Over the year, nonfarm employment declined in 30 of the 38 metropolitan areas with annual average employment levels above 750,000 in 2001. The largest over-the-year percentage declines in employment in these large metropolitan areas were posted in San Jose, Calif. (-3.5 percent), San Francisco, Calif. (-3.3 percent), and Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Wash. (-3.2 percent). Among the largest areas, Riverside-San Bernardino, Calif., had the highest over-the-year percentage increase in employment (+2.7 per- cent), followed by San Diego, Calif. (+1.8 percent), and Las Vegas, Nev.- Ariz. (+1.7 percent). Over the year, employment growth was most prevalent in government, in services, and in finance, insurance, and real estate with increases in 165, 151, and 118 metropolitan areas, respectively. Manufacturing continued to be the weakest industry division, with 221 metropolitan areas experiencing employment losses over the year. ______________________________ The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment release for October is scheduled to be issued on November 20. The Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment release for October is scheduled to be issued on November 27. - 3 - ____________________________________________________________________ | | | Upcoming Changes to State and Metropolitan Area | | Nonfarm Payroll Series in March 2003 | | | | NAICS conversion. The nonfarm payroll series for states and | | metropolitan areas, produced from the Current Employment | | Statistics (CES) program and presented in table 2 of this news | | release, will be converted from the 1987 Standard Industrial | | Classification (SIC) basis to the 2002 North American Industry | | Classification System (NAICS) basis with the release in March | | 2003 of January 2003 estimates. The NAICS conversion involves | | major definitional changes to many of the currently published SIC- | | based series. After the conversion to NAICS, SIC-based series | | will no longer be produced or published. Historical time series | | will be reconstructed as part of the NAICS conversion process. | | At the state and metropolitan area level, the NAICS-based | | reconstruction effort will cover only the all employee series, | | which will have a NAICS-based history extending back to January | | 1990, except for total nonfarm employment series, which will | | retain their current beginning dates. There will be no | | reconstruction of average weekly hours, average hourly earnings, | | or other data types; these series will begin in January 2001 on a | | NAICS basis. | | | | Completion of the CES sample redesign. March 2003 also will | | mark the completion of the CES sample redesign phase-in at the | | state and metropolitan area level. The redesign converts the CES | | from a quota-based sample to a probability-based sample. In March | | 2003, at the state and metropolitan area level, the transportation | | and public utilities; finance, insurance, and real estate; retail | | trade; and services industries will be converted to the new sample.| | All other private sector industries have already been converted. | | The final stage of sample redesign phase-in may result in level | | shifts for average weekly hours, average hourly earnings, and | | production worker employment series. New levels for these series | | are being recomputed from the NAICS-based probability sample. | | | | Small domain models. With the full implementation of the CES | | sample redesign at the state and metropolitan area levels in | | March 2003, some redistribution of sample from smaller to larger | | metropolitan areas will be needed in order to maximize the | | reliability of the statewide total nonfarm estimates. In order | | to sustain the viability of the employment series for smaller | | domains, primarily detailed industry series within the smallest | | metropolitan areas, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has | | developed a small domain model, based on weighted least squares | | regression methodology. The inputs for the model are available | | sample, time series history, and additional information from the | | full state sample. In March 2003, the model will be implemented | | as the official estimator for the approximately 10 percent of CES | | published series which have insufficient sample for direct sample- | | based estimates. | | | | Further information on upcoming changes to CES data series is | | available through the BLS public database at the state and area | | homepage at http://www.bls.gov/sae/ or by calling 202-691-6559. | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------- Technical Note This release presents labor force and unemployment data from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program (table 1) for 337 metropolitan areas, including those in Puerto Rico. Nonfarm payroll employment estimates from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program (table 2) are provided for over 270 of these areas. State estimates were previously published in the news release, Regional and State Employment and Unemployment, and are republished in this release for ease of reference. The LAUS and CES programs are both Federal-State cooperative endeavors. Labor force and unemployment-from the LAUS program Definitions. The labor force and unemployment data are based on the same concepts and definitions as those used for the official national estimates obtained from the Current Population Survey (CPS), a sample survey of households that is conducted for the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) by the U.S. Census Bureau. The labor force includes both the employed and the unemployed. Employed persons are those who did any work at all for pay or profit in the survey reference week (the week including the 12th of the month) or worked 15 hours or more without pay in a family business or farm, plus those not working who have a job from which they were temporarily absent, whether or not paid, for such reasons as labor-management dispute, illness, or vacation. Unemployed persons are those who did not work at all (in the reference week), have actively looked for a job (sometime in the 4-week period ending with the survey reference week), and are currently available for work; persons on layoff expecting recall need not be looking for work to be counted as unemployed. Method of estimation. Effective January 1996, estimates for all states, the District of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area, and New York City are produced using estimating equations based on regression techniques. For all other substate areas, estimates are prepared through indirect estimation procedures. Employment estimates, which are based largely on ''place of work'' estimates from the CES program, are adjusted to refer to place of residence as used in the CPS. Unemployment estimates are aggregates of persons previously employed in industries covered by state unemployment (UI) laws and entrants to the labor force data from the CPS. The substate estimates of employment and unemployment which geographically exhaust the entire state, are adjusted proportionally to ensure that they add to the independently estimated state totals. A detailed description of the estimation procedures is available from BLS upon request. Annual revisions. Labor force and unemployment data shown for the prior year reflect adjustments made at the end of each year, usually with January estimates. The adjusted estimates reflect updated population data from the U.S. Census Bureau and any revisions in the other data sources. In addition, data for all states, the District of Columbia, and the two large substate areas noted are adjusted annually to equal the CPS annual averages, usually effective with January estimates. All other substate estimates are adjusted to add to the revised (benchmarked) state estimates. Employment-from the CES program Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month, except for federal government employment, which represents the number of persons who occupied positions on the last day of the month. Persons are counted at their place of work rather than at their place of residence; those appearing on more than one payroll are counted on each payroll. Industries are classified on the basis of their principal product or activity in accordance with the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification Manual. Method of estimation. The employment data are estimated using a "link relative" technique in which a ratio (link relative) of current-month employment to that of the previous month is computed from a sample of establishments reporting for both months. The estimates of employment for the current month are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these ratios. Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted annually to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks, derived principally from tax reports which are submitted by employers who are covered under state unemployment insurance (UI) laws. The benchmark information is used to adjust the monthly estimates between the new benchmark and the preceding one and also to establish the level of employment for the new benchmark month. Thus, the benchmarking process establishes the level of employment, and the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level for the subsequent months. Reliability of the estimates The estimates presented in this release are based on sample survey and administrative data and thus are subject to sampling and other types of errors. Sampling error is a measure of sampling variability--that is, variation that occurs by chance because a sample rather than the entire population is surveyed. Survey data are also subject to nonsampling errors, such as those which can be introduced into the data collection and processing operations. Estimates not directly derived from sample surveys are subject to additional errors resulting from the special estimation processes used. The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of rounding. With respect to the LAUS program, unemployment rates are computed, in most instances, from unrounded data rather than from data that may be displayed in the tables; differences, however, are generally insignificant. Labor force and unemployment estimates. Measures of sampling error, in the form of the standard errors for state annual average estimates derived from the CPS, are available in the annual BLS bulletin, Geographic Profile of Employment and Unemployment. Error measures cannot be computed for substate areas because of the special estimation processes used. Measures of nonsampling error for CPS data are not available, but additional information on the subject is provided in the BLS monthly periodical, Employment and Earnings. Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error are not available for state CES data, but the relatively large size of the samples maintained by the state agencies and the annual adjustment of employment estimates to more recent benchmark levels assure a high degree of accuracy. Information on recent benchmark revisions for states is available upon request. Area definitions. The substate area data published in this release reflect the standards and definitions established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, dated June 30, 1996. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is published annually in the May issue of Employment and Earnings. Additional information More complete information on the technical procedures used to develop these estimates and additional data appear in Employment and Earnings, which is available by subscription from the Super- intendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402 (telephone 202-512-1800). Estimates of unadjusted and seasonally adjusted labor force and unemployment data for states, census regions and divisions, and two areas are available in the news release, Regional and State Employment and Unemployment. Estimates of labor force and unemplopment for all states, metropolitan areas, labor market areas, counties, cities with a population of 25,000 or more, and other areas used in the administration of various federal economic assistance programs are available from the BLS Internet at (http://stats.bls.gov/lau/). Employment data from the CES program are available at (http://stats.bls.gov/sae/). Information in this release will be made available to sensory impaired individuals upon request.
