METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — JUNE 2011

Unemployment rates were lower in June than a year earlier in 224 of the 372 metropolitan areas, higher 

in 127 areas, and unchanged in 21 areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Twelve 

areas recorded jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent, while nine areas registered rates of less than 5.0 

percent. Two hundred seventeen metropolitan areas reported over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll 

employment, 143 reported decreases, and 12 had no change. The national unemployment rate in June 

was 9.3 percent, not seasonally adjusted, down from 9.6 percent a year earlier. 

Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) 

In June, 121 metropolitan areas reported jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent, down from 131 areas a 

year earlier, while 58 areas posted rates below 7.0 percent, up from 49 areas in June 2010. El Centro, 

Calif., and Yuma, Ariz., recorded the highest unemployment rates in June 2011, 28.5 and 26.9 percent, 

respectively. All of the remaining 10 areas with jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent were located in 

California. Bismarck, N.D., registered the lowest unemployment rate, 3.6 percent. The areas with the 

next lowest rates were Lincoln, Neb., and Fargo, N.D.-Minn., 4.1 and 4.2 percent, respectively. Of the 

nine areas with jobless rates of less than 5.0 percent, seven were located in the West North Central 

census division. A total of 214 areas recorded June unemployment rates below the U.S. figure of 9.3 

percent, 156 areas reported rates above it, and 2 areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1 

and the map.) 

The largest over-the-year unemployment rate decrease in June was registered in Rockford, Ill. (-3.0 

percentage points). An additional 19 areas recorded jobless rate decreases of at least 2.0 percentage 

points. Pascagoula, Miss., reported the largest over-the-year jobless rate increase (+2.0 percentage 

points), followed by Mobile, Ala. (+1.8 points). Twelve additional areas had increases of at least a full 

percentage point from a year earlier. 

In the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, the highest 

unemployment rates in June were registered in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif., 14.2 percent, 

and Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev., 13.8 percent. Fifteen additional large areas posted rates of 10.0 percent or 
- 2 - 

more. The lowest jobless rate among the large areas was recorded in Oklahoma City, Okla., 5.7 percent, 

followed by Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, D.C.-Va.-Md.-W.Va., 6.2 percent. Thirty-nine of the 

large areas reported over-the-year unemployment rate decreases, while 10 areas registered rate increases. 

Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev., experienced the largest unemployment rate decrease from June 2010 (-1.5 

percentage points). Six other large areas reported rate decreases of at least 1.0 percentage point. The 

large area with the largest over-the-year jobless rate increase was Memphis, Tenn.-Miss.-Ark. (+0.9 

percentage point). 

Metropolitan Division Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) 

Eleven of the most populous metropolitan areas are made up of 34 metropolitan divisions, which are 

essentially separately identifiable employment centers. In June 2011, Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, 

Fla., and Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Mich., registered the highest jobless rates among the divisions, 13.9 

and 13.7 percent, respectively. Nashua, N.H.-Mass., reported the lowest division rate, 5.4 percent, 

followed by Bethesda-Rockville-Frederick, Md., 5.8 percent. (See table 2.) 

Twenty-five of the metropolitan divisions recorded over-the-year jobless rate decreases in June, seven 

registered increases, and two had no change. Warren-Troy-Farmington Hills, Mich., posted the largest 

rate decline from a year earlier (-1.5 percentage points), closely followed by Gary, Ind., and Lake 

County-Kenosha County, Ill.-Wis. (-1.4 points each). Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, Fla., experienced 

the largest over-the-year unemployment rate increase among divisions (+1.2 percentage points). 

In 6 of the 11 metropolitan areas that contain divisions, the ranges between the highest and lowest 

division jobless rates were 2.0 percentage points or more in June. Boston-Cambridge-Quincy, Mass.-

N.H., recorded the largest rate difference among its divisions, 6.3 percentage points (LawrenceMethuen-Salem, Mass.-N.H., 11.7 percent, compared with Nashua, N.H.-Mass., 5.4 percent).

The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment news release for July is scheduled 

to be released on Friday, August 19, 2011, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). The Metropolitan Area 

Employment and Unemployment news release for July is scheduled to be released on 

Wednesday, August 31, 2011, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). 
Technical Note 

This release presents labor force and unemployment 

data from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) 

program (tables 1 and 2) for 372 metropolitan statistical areas 

and metropolitan New England City and Town Areas 

(NECTAs), plus 8 areas in Puerto Rico. Estimates for 34 

metropolitan and NECTA divisions also are presented. 

Nonfarm payroll employment estimates from the Current 

Employment Statistics (CES) program (tables 3 and 4) are 

provided for most of the same 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 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 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 states, the District 

of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale 

metropolitan division, and New York City are produced using 

time-series models with real-time benchmarking to national 

CPS totals. Model-based estimation was extended to the 

following areas and their respective balances of state in 2005: 

the Chicago-Joliet-Naperville, IL Metropolitan Division; 

Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, OH Metropolitan Statistical Area; 

Detroit-Warren-Livonia, MI Metropolitan Statistical Area; 

Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, FL Metropolitan Division; 

New Orleans-Metairie-Kenner, LA Metropolitan Statistical 

Area; and Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, WA Metropolitan 

Division. (Model-based estimation of the New OrleansMetairie-Kenner metropolitan area was suspended following 

Hurricane Katrina; the indirect estimation methods described 

below will be used for this area until further notice.) 

Modeling improves the statistical basis of the estimation for 

these areas and provides important tools for analysis, such as 

measures of errors and seasonally adjusted series. For all 

other substate areas in this release, estimates are prepared 

through indirect estimation procedures using a building-block 

approach. 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 insurance (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 or balanceof-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 implemented with January estimates. 

The adjusted model-based estimates reflect updated 

population data from the U.S. Census Bureau, any revisions 

in the other data sources, and model reestimation. All 

substate estimates are reestimated and adjusted to add to the 

revised model-based 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 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 2007 version 

of the North American Industry Classification System.

Method of e stimation. 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 39 

percent of CES published series which have insufficient 

sample for direct sample-based estimates. 

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. 

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 particular 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. 

Labor force and unempl oyment estim ates. Modelbased error measures are available for states on the Internet at 

www.bls.gov/lau/lastderr.htm. Measures of nonsampling 

error are not available, but additional information on the 

subject is provided in Employment and Earnings Online at 

www.bls.gov/opub/ee/home.htm. 

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 

online at www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Information on 

recent benchmark revisions for states is available on the BLS 

Web site at 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 on December 1, 2009. Data reflect 

New England City and Town Area (NECTA) definitions, 

rather than county-based definitions, in the six New England 

States. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is 

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

Additional information 

More complete information on the technical procedures 

used to develop these estimates and additional data appear in 

Employment and Earnings Online. 

Estimates of unadjusted and seasonally adjusted labor 

force and unemployment data for states, census regions and 

divisions, and seven substate areas are available in the news 

release, Regional and State Employment and Unemployment. 

Estimates of labor force and unemployment 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 Internet at www.bls.gov/lau/. 

Employment data from the CES program are available on the 

BLS Web site at www.bls.gov/sae/.

1 Area boundaries do not reflect official OMB definitions. p = preliminary.

 NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Data for Puerto Rico are derived from a

monthly household survey similar to the Current Population Survey. Area

definitions are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 10-02,

dated December 1, 2009, and are available on the BLS Web site at

www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New England states are

Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other

states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They

are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. Davenport-Moline-Rock

Island, Iowa-Ill., is the exception in that it is listed under Illinois for operational

reasons. Data for 2010 have been revised to incorporate updated inputs and

adjustment to new state controls. Estimates for the latest month are subject to

revision the following month.

1 These 11 areas contain all of the 34 metropolitan divisions. 2 Part of the area (or division) is in one or more adjacent states. 3 All of the division is in one or more adjacent states. p = preliminary. 

 NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Area definitions are based on Office of

Management and Budget Bulletin No. 10-02, dated December 1, 2009, available at

www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan

New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are

county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They are listed

under the state that corresponds to the first city in their title. Metropolitan divisions

are listed under their metropolitan areas. Some divisions lie in more than one state,

and some, like Camden, N.J., are totally outside the states under which their

metropolitan areas are listed. Three sets of metropolitan areas and divisions have

similar or identical titles. For Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, D.C.-Va.-Md.-W.Va.,

the metropolitan area and division titles are identical. For the

Boston-Cambridge-Quincy, Mass.-N.H., and Chicago-Joliet-Naperville, Ill.-Ind.-Wis.,

metropolitan areas, the division titles are similar but include only Massachusetts and

Illinois, respectively. Data for 2010 have been revised to incorporate updated inputs

and adjustment to new state controls. Estimates for the latest month are subject to

revision the following month.

1 Area boundaries do not reflect official OMB definitions. p = preliminary. c = corrected.

 NOTE: Data are counts of jobs by place of work. Estimates subsequent to the current

benchmark are provisional and will be revised when new information becomes available.

Area definitions are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 10-02,

dated December 1, 2009, and available at www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the

six New England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs),

while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or

more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. 

Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill. is the exception since it is listed under Illinois for

operational reasons.
