REGIONAL AND STATE EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — JULY 2013 

Regional and state unemployment rates were little changed in July. Twenty-eight states and the District 

of Columbia had unemployment rate increases, 8 states had decreases, and 14 states had no change, the 

U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Thirty-six states and the District of Columbia had 

unemployment rate decreases from a year earlier, nine states had increases, and five states had no 

change. The national jobless rate edged down to 7.4 percent from June and was 0.8 percentage point 

lower than in July 2012. 

In July 2013, nonfarm payroll employment increased in 32 states, decreased in 17 states and the District 

of Columbia, and was unchanged in South Dakota. The largest over-the-month increases in employment 

occurred in California (+38,100), Georgia (+30,900), and Florida (+27,600). The largest over-the-month 

decrease in employment occurred in New Jersey (-11,800), followed by Nevada (-10,200) and Maryland 

(-9,200). The largest over-the-month percentage increases in employment occurred in Georgia, Utah, 

and West Virginia (+0.8 percent each). The largest over-the-month percentage decline in employment 

occurred in Nevada (-0.9 percent), followed by New Hampshire (-0.5 percent) and Maryland (-0.4 

percent). Over the year, nonfarm employment increased in 49 states and the District of Columbia and 

decreased in Alaska. The largest over-the-year percentage increase occurred in Utah (+3.2 percent), 

followed by Arizona (+3.1 percent) and Georgia (+2.8 percent). The only over-the-year percentage 

decrease in employment occurred in Alaska (-0.5 percent). 

Regional Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted) 

In July, the West continued to have the highest regional unemployment rate, 7.9 percent, while the 

Midwest and South had the lowest rates, 7.3 percent each. Over the month, no region had a statistically 

significant unemployment rate change. Significant over-the-year rate changes occurred in three regions: 

the West (-1.4 percentage points), Northeast (-0.8 point), and South (-0.5 point). (See table 1.) 

Among the nine geographic divisions, the East North Central and Pacific had the highest jobless rates, 

8.2 percent each in July. The West North Central again had the lowest rate, 5.5 percent. No division had 

a statistically significant over-the-month unemployment rate change. Four divisions had significant rate 

changes from a year earlier: the Pacific (-1.7 percentage points), Middle Atlantic (-1.0 point), Mountain 

(-0.9 point), and South Atlantic (-0.8 point).

State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted) 

Nevada had the highest unemployment rate among the states in July, 9.5 percent. The next highest rate 

was in Illinois, 9.2 percent. North Dakota continued to have the lowest jobless rate, 3.0 percent. In total, 

17 states had jobless rates significantly lower than the U.S. figure of 7.4 percent, 11 states and the 

District of Columbia had measurably higher rates, and 22 states had rates that were not appreciably 

different from that of the nation. (See tables A and 3 and chart 1.) 

Eight states had statistically significant over-the-month unemployment rate changes in July, of which 

seven were increases. The significant increases occurred in Alaska and Georgia (+0.3 percentage point 

each) and California, Iowa, Nebraska, Vermont, and Virginia (+0.2 point each). The only significant rate 

decrease was in Mississippi (-0.5 percentage point). The remaining 42 states and the District of 

Columbia had jobless rates that were not measurably different from those of a month earlier, though 

some had changes that were at least as large numerically as the significant changes. 

Thirteen states had statistically significant unemployment rate changes from July 2012, all of which 

were declines. The largest of these occurred in California (-1.9 percentage points). (See table B.) 

Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted) 

In July 2013, 16 states had statistically significant over-the-month changes in employment, 12 of which 

were increases. The largest statistically significant job gain occurred in California (+38,100), followed 

by Georgia (+30,900) and Florida (+27,600). The largest statistically significant job decreases occurred 

in New Jersey (-11,800) and Nevada (-10,200). (See table C.) 

Over the year, 33 states had statistically significant changes in employment, all of which were positive. 

The largest over-the-year job increase occurred in Texas (+293,000), followed by California (+236,400) 

and Florida (+143,700). (See table D and chart 2.)

State
Technical Note 

This release presents labor force and unemployment 

data for census regions and divisions, states, and selected 

substate areas from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics 

(LAUS) program (tables 1 to 4). Also presented are nonfarm 

payroll employment estimates by state and industry 

supersector from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) 

program (tables 5 and 6). 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 LAUS program measures employment and unemployment on a place-of-residence basis. The 

universe for each is the civilian noninstitutional population 16 

years of age and over. Employed persons are those who did 

any work at all for pay or profit in the 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 had a job from which they were temporarily 

absent, whether or not paid, for such reasons as bad weather, 

labor-management dispute, illness, or vacation. Unemployed

persons are those who were not employed during the 

reference week (based on the definition above), had actively 

looked for a job sometime in the 4-week period ending with 

the reference week, and were currently available for work; 

persons on layoff expecting recall need not be looking for 

work to be counted as unemployed. The labor force is the 

sum of employed and unemployed persons. The unemployment rate is the number of unemployed as a percent of the 

labor force. 

Method of estimation. Estimates for 48 of the 50 

states, the District of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long 

Beach-Glendale metropolitan division, New York City, and 

the balances of California and New York State are produced 

using estimating equations based on regression techniques. 

This method, which underwent substantial enhancement at 

the beginning of 2005, utilizes data from several sources, 

including the CPS, the CES, and state unemployment 

insurance (UI) programs. Estimates for the state of California 

are derived by summing the estimates for the Los AngelesLong Beach-Glendale metropolitan division and the balance 

of California. Similarly, estimates for New York State are 

derived by summing the estimates for New York City and the 

balance of New York State. Estimates for all nine census 

divisions and the five additional substate areas contained in 

this release (the Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor and DetroitWarren-Livonia metropolitan areas and the Chicago-JolietNaperville, Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, and SeattleBellevue-Everett metropolitan divisions) and their respective 

balances of state are based on a similar regression approach 

that does not incorporate CES or UI data. Estimates for 

census regions are obtained by summing the model-based 

estimates for the component divisions and then calculating 

the unemployment rate. Each month, census division 

estimates are controlled to national totals; state estimates are 

then controlled to their respective division totals. Substate 

and balance-of-state estimates for the five areas noted above 

are controlled to their respective state totals. Estimates for 

Puerto Rico are derived from a monthly household survey 

similar to the CPS. A detailed description of the estimation 

procedures is available from BLS upon request. 

Annual revisions. Labor force and unemployment data 

for prior years reflect adjustments made at the end of each 

year. The adjusted estimates reflect updated population data 

from the U.S. Census Bureau, any revisions in the other data 

sources, and model reestimation. In most years, historical 

data for the most recent five years (both seasonally adjusted 

and not seasonally adjusted) are revised near the beginning of 

each calendar year, prior to the release of January estimates. 

Seasonal adjustment. The LAUS program introduced 

smoothed seasonally adjusted (SSA) estimates in January 

2010. These are seasonally adjusted data that have 

incorporated a long-run trend smoothing procedure, resulting 

in estimates that are less volatile than those previously 

produced. The estimates are smoothed using a Henderson 

Trend Filter (H13). The H13 uses a filtering procedure, based 

on moving averages, to remove the irregular fluctuations 

from the seasonally adjusted series, leaving the trend. The 

same process is used on both historical and current year 

estimates. For more information about the smoothing 

technique, see the BLS website at 

www.bls.gov/lau/lassaqa.htm.

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 on December 

1, 2009. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is available 

online at www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. 

Employment—from the CES program 

Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on 

establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the 

pay period that 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 2012 version 

of the North American Industry Classification System. 

Method of estimation. CES State and Area 

employment data are produced using several estimation 

procedures. Where possible these data are produced using a 
"weighted link relative" estimation technique in which a ratio 

of current-month weighted employment to that of the 

previous-month weighted employment is computed from a 

sample of establishments reporting for both months. The 

estimates of employment for the current month are then 

obtained by multiplying these ratios by the previous month’s 

employment estimates. The weighted link relative technique 

is utilized for data series where the sample size meets certain 

statistical criteria. 

For some employment series, relatively small sample 

sizes limit the reliability of the weighted link-relative 

estimates. In these cases, BLS uses the CES small domain 

model (SDM) to generate employment estimates. The SDM 

combines the direct sample estimates (described above) and 

forecasts of historical (benchmarked) data to decrease the 

volatility of the estimates. With the January 2013 estimates 

published on March 18, 2013, BLS will refine the SDM 

methodology to incorporate more real-time information in the 

model. 

For more detailed information about the CES small 

domain model, refer to the BLS Handbook of Methods. 

Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted 

annually to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks, 

derived principally from tax reports that 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. 

Seasonal adjustment. Payroll employment data are 

seasonally adjusted at the statewide supersector level. In 

some states, the seasonally adjusted payroll employment total 

is computed by aggregating the independently adjusted supersector series. In other states, the seasonally adjusted payroll 

employment total is independently adjusted. Revisions of 

historical data for the most recent 5 years are made once a 

year, coincident with annual benchmark adjustments. 

Caution on aggregating state data. State estimation 

procedures are designed to produce accurate data for each 

individual state. BLS independently develops a national 

employment series; state estimates are not forced to sum to 

national totals. Because each state series is subject to larger 

sampling and nonsampling errors than the national series, 

summing them cumulates individual state level errors and can 

cause significant distortions at an aggregate level. Due to 

these statistical limitations, BLS does not compile a "sum-ofstates" employment series, and cautions users that such a 

series is subject to a relatively large and volatile error 

structure. 

Reliability of the estimates 

The estimates presented in this release are based on 

sample surveys, administrative data, and modeling 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 also are 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 specific estimation 

processes used. The sums of individual items may not always 

equal the totals shown in the same tables because of 

rounding. Unemployment rates are computed from unrounded data and thus may differ slightly from rates 

computed using the rounded data displayed in the tables. 

Use of error measures. In 2005, the LAUS program 

introduced several improvements to its methodology. Among 

these were the development of model-based error measures 

for the monthly estimates and the estimates of over-themonth changes. The introductory section of this release 

preserves the long-time practice of highlighting the direction 

of the movements in regional and state unemployment rates 

and state nonfarm payroll employment regardless of their 

statistical significance. The remainder of the analysis in the 

release takes statistical significance into consideration. 

Labor force and unemployment estimates. Modelbased error measures for seasonally adjusted and not 

seasonally adjusted data and for over-the-month and overthe-year changes are available online at 

www.bls.gov/lau/lastderr.htm. BLS uses a 90-percent 

confidence level in determining whether changes in LAUS 

unemployment rates are statistically significant. The average 

magnitude of the current year over-the-month change in a 

state unemployment rate that is required for statistical 

significance at the 90-percent confidence level is just over 0.2 

percentage point; the average amount of the current over-theyear change in a state rate for significance is about 0.9 point. 

More details can be found on the website. Measures of 

nonsampling error are not available. 

Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error for 

state CES data at the total nonfarm and supersector levels are 

available online at www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. BLS uses 

a 90-percent confidence level in determining whether 

changes in CES employment levels are statistically 

significant. Information on recent benchmark revisions for 

states is available online at www.bls.gov/sae/.
