Technical information: Employment: (202) 691-6559 USDL 04-601 http://www.bls.gov/sae/ Unemployment: 691-6392 http://www.bls.gov/lau/ For release: 10:00 A.M. EDT Media contact: 691-5902 Friday, April 9, 2004 METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: FEBRUARY 2004 In February, 266 metropolitan areas recorded lower unemployment rates than a year earlier, 48 areas had higher rates, and 17 areas had rates that were unchanged, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. Seven metropolitan areas posted unemployment rates below 3.0 percent, with five of these located in the South and the other two in the Midwest. Thirteen areas had jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent; nine of these were located in California and three were along the Mexican border in other states. The national unemployment rate was 6.0 percent, not seasonally adjusted, in February. Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) Sixty-six metropolitan areas reported jobless rates of at least 7.0 per- cent, down from 85 areas in February 2003, while 58 areas recorded rates below 4.0 percent in February, up from 36 areas a year earlier. Once again, the lowest unemployment rates were posted in areas with large state univer- sities: Bryan-College Station, Texas, 2.0 percent, and Columbia, Mo., and Gainesville, Fla., 2.3 percent each. Five areas in California reported the highest jobless rates: Merced (18.0 percent), Visalia-Tulare-Porterville (17.6 percent), Yuba City, (16.4 percent), Salinas (15.4 percent), and Fresno (15.2 percent). (See table 1.) In February, San Jose, Calif., continued to record the largest over-the- year unemployment rate decrease (-2.0 percentage points), followed closely by Fresno, Calif. (-1.9 points), and Bremerton, Wash. (-1.8 points). Among the 46 areas with rate decreases of 1.0 percentage point or more from last February, 21 were located in the South and 14 were located in the West. Steubenville-Weirton, Ohio-W.Va., again registered the largest over-the- year jobless rate increase (+2.6 percentage points), due in part to manufacturing layoffs. The next largest rate increase was reported in Decatur, Ala. (+1.2 percentage points). Three additional areas had rate increases of 1.0 percentage point. Of the 51 metropolitan areas with a 1990 Census population of 1 million or more, 44 areas reported lower jobless rates than in February 2003, 5 recorded higher rates, and 2 had no change. San Jose, Calif., once again registered the largest over-the-year rate decrease (-2.0 percentage points). Seven additional large areas, four of which were in the West, experienced rate declines of at least 1.0 percentage point. The largest over-the-year rate increase occurred in Buffalo-Niagara Falls, N.Y. (+0.8 percentage point). Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va., continued to report the lowest jobless rate among the large areas, 3.2 percent, again followed by Orange County, Calif., 3.5 percent. Three additional large areas had rates below 4.0 percent in February. New York, N.Y., and Portland-Vancouver, Ore.-Wash., continued to post the highest unemployment rates, 7.8 percent each. Three other areas had rates of at least 7.0 percent. - 2 - Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) Among the 274 metropolitan areas for which February nonfarm payroll data were available, 180 reported increases in employment, 85 recorded decreases, and 9 had no change. The largest over-the-year employment increases were posted in Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va. (+54,900), Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz. (+37,200), Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+35,600), Riverside-San Bernardino, Calif. (+22,200), Orlando, Fla. (+17,400), and Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, Fla. (+16,200). The largest over-the-year percentage increases in employment were reported in Bloomington, Ind., and Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+4.4 percent each), La Crosse, Wis.-Minn. (+4.2 percent), McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Texas (+4.1 percent), and Benton Harbor, Mich., and Green Bay, Wis. (+4.0 percent each). The largest over-the-year employment decreases were reported in Detroit, Mich. (-43,100), Boston, Mass.-N.H. (-23,300), San Jose, Calif. (-21,300), Denver, Colo. (-20,000), San Francisco, Calif. (-18,500), and Oakland, Calif. (-15,700). The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in em- ployment were reported in Enid, Okla. (-3.9 percent), Columbia, S.C. (-3.7 percent), Steubenville-Weirton, Ohio-W.Va. (-3.6 percent), Lawton, Okla. (-3.0 percent), and Omaha, Neb.-Iowa, Saginaw-Bay City-Midland, Mich., San Jose, Calif., Toledo, Ohio, and Tulsa, Okla. (-2.5 percent each). Over the year, nonfarm employment increased in 24 of the 39 metropolitan areas with annual average employment levels above 750,000 in 2003. The largest over-the-year percentage increases in employment in these metropo- litan areas were posted in Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+4.4 percent), Phoenix- Mesa, Ariz. (+2.3 percent), Riverside-San Bernardino, Calif. (+2.1 percent), Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va. (+2.0 percent), and Cincinnati, Ohio-Ky.-Ind., and Orlando, Fla. (+1.9 percent each). Among the largest areas, San Jose, Calif., had the largest over-the-year percentage decline in employment (-2.5 percent), followed by Detroit, Mich. (-2.1 percent), San Francisco, Calif. (-1.9 percent), Denver, Colo. (-1.8 percent), Oakland, Calif. (-1.5 percent), and Boston, Mass.-N.H. (-1.2 percent). Employment growth was most widespread in education and health services, with 221 of 274 metropolitan areas experiencing over-the-year employment gains in this industry sector. Growth also was prevalent in leisure and hospitality, financial activities, construction, and professional and business services. Manufacturing remained the weakest industry, with 199 metropolitan areas experiencing employment losses over the year. Employment losses also were pronounced in the government sector, where 134 areas saw decreases in over-the-year employment. ______________________________ The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment release for March 2004 is scheduled to be issued on April 23. The Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment release for March 2004 is scheduled to be issued on April 28. - 3 - 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. - 4 - 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. 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 activity in accordance with the 2002 version of the North American Industry Classification System. 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. Small-domain models are used as the official estimators for the approximately 10 percent of CES published series which have sample-based estimates. 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. - 5 - Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error for state CES data at the supersector level and for metropolitan area CES data at the total nonfarm level are available on the BLS Web site at (http://www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm). Information on recent benchmark revisions for states is available at (http://www.bls.gov/ sae/). 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 Superin- tendent 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 on the BLS Web site 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.
