Preliminary 2023 Data on Employment Status by State and Demographic Group

This table presents preliminary data on employment status by demographic group for states 

from the Current Population Survey (CPS). It will differ from the final table in a number of ways, 

but it is expected that the data—particularly for labor force participation rates, employmentpopulation ratios, and unemployment rates—will be little changed for common statedemographic groups.

Differences between the preliminary and final tables are as follows:

• The underlying data for this preliminary table were tabulated on the initial population 

controls—that is, estimates of population available during the reference year and not endof-year revisions. While the final table will reflect revised population estimates, the data in 

this preliminary table are consistent with the published CPS national totals. Differences in 

employment or unemployment levels between these preliminary data and the final data 

generally will be less than one percent.

• Data for marital status groups and detailed age break-outs by race and ethnicity are not 

included in this preliminary table because they were not part of the underlying tabulations.

• This preliminary table does not contain unemployment rate error ranges.

• Minimum bases simulated using the generalized variance function parameters that had 

been developed for the 2022 CPS sample were used to determine which statedemographic groups were of sufficient reliability for publication in this preliminary table. The 

final table will reflect the use of actual minimum bases calculated from the 2023 CPS 

sample. See appendix B of the Geographic Profile of Employment and Unemployment at 

https://www.bls.gov/opub/geographic-profile/ for more information on the minimum base 

standard for statistical reliability.

General information on the uses and limitations of state and local area data from the CPS can 

be found at https://www.bls.gov/lau/notescps.htm. Questions can be addressed to the Division 

of Local Area Unemployment Statistics by e-mail at lausinfo@bls.gov or by telephone at (202)
