METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — JANUARY 2014 

Unemployment rates were lower in January than a year earlier in 367 of the 372 metropolitan areas, 

higher in 3 areas, and unchanged in 2 areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Thirty 

areas had jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent and 41 areas had rates of less than 5.0 percent. Three 

hundred sixteen metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 48 had 

decreases, and 8 had no change. The national unemployment rate in January was 7.0 percent, not 

seasonally adjusted, down from 8.5 percent a year earlier. 

Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) 

Yuma, Ariz., and El Centro, Calif., had the highest unemployment rates in January, 26.1 percent and 

22.0 percent, respectively. Midland, Texas, had the lowest rate, 2.9 percent. A total of 210 areas had 

January unemployment rates below the U.S. figure of 7.0 percent, 157 areas had rates above it, and 5 

areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1 and the map.) 

Ocean City, N.J., had the largest over-the-year unemployment rate decrease in January (-3.7 percentage 

points). Ninety-one other areas had rate declines of at least 2.0 percentage points, and an additional 183 

areas had declines between 1.0 and 1.9 points. Yuma, Ariz., had the largest over-the-year jobless rate 

increase (+1.3 percentage points). No other area had an unemployment rate increase greater than 0.6 

percentage point. 

Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment Data Series Changes 

In accordance with annual practices, historical data have been revised in tables 1 through 4 of this news 

release. For detailed information on the revisions, see the box notes at the end of the news release. 
- 2 - 

Of the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, Providence-Fall 

River-Warwick, R.I.-Mass., had the highest unemployment rate in January, 10.3 percent. Austin-Round 

Rock-San Marcos, Texas, had the lowest rate among the large areas, 4.7 percent. Forty-eight of the large 

areas had over-the-year unemployment rate decreases and one had an increase. The largest rate decline 

occurred in Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, N.C.-S.C. (-2.6 percentage points). Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, 

Ohio, had the only jobless rate increase over the year (+0.2 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 January, Lawrence-Methuen-Salem, Mass.-

N.H., had the highest jobless rate among the divisions, 10.6 percent. Bethesda-Rockville-Frederick, Md., 

had the lowest rate, 4.6 percent. (See table 2.) 

All 34 metropolitan divisions had over-the-year jobless rate decreases in January. The largest of these 

declines occurred in Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Mich., and Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, Fla. 

(-2.6 percentage points each). Twenty-three other divisions had rate decreases of 1.0 percentage point 

or more. 

Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) 

In January, 316 metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 48 had 

decreases, and 8 had no change. The largest over-the-year employment increases occurred in New YorkNorthern New Jersey-Long Island, N.Y.-N.J.-Pa. (+135,600), Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, 

Calif. (+129,800), and Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas (+95,900). The largest over-the-year 

percentage gain in employment occurred in Ocean City, N.J. (+10.5 percent), followed by Napa, Calif. 

(+6.6 percent), and Greeley, Colo. (+6.1 percent). (See table 3.) 

The largest over-the-year decrease in employment occurred in Albuquerque, N.M. (-4,100), followed by 

Peoria, Ill. (-3,400), and Charleston, W.Va. (-2,900). The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in 

employment occurred in Anniston-Oxford, Ala. (-3.7 percent), Danville, Va. (-3.2 percent), and 

Bloomington-Normal, Ill. (-2.7 percent). 

Over the year, nonfarm employment rose in 36 of the 38 metropolitan areas with annual average 

employment levels above 750,000 in 2013. The largest over-the-year percentage increase in employment 

in these large metropolitan areas occurred in Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas (+4.5 percent), 

followed by San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif. (+4.4 percent), and Nashville-Davidson--

Murfreesboro--Franklin, Tenn. (+3.7 percent). The only large areas that had over-the-year percentage 

decreases in employment were Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News, Va.-N.C. (-0.3 percent), and 

Pittsburgh, Pa. (-0.1 percent). 

Metropolitan Division Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) 

Nonfarm payroll employment data were available in January 2014 for 32 metropolitan divisions, which 

are essentially separately identifiable employment centers within a metropolitan area. Thirty of the 32 

metropolitan divisions had over-the-year employment gains and 2 had losses. The largest over-the-year 

increase in employment among the metropolitan divisions occurred in New York-White Plains-Wayne, 

N.Y.-N.J. (+107,200), followed by Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale, Calif. (+91,100), and Dallas-

The largest over-the-year percentage increase in employment among the metropolitan divisions occurred 

in San Francisco-San Mateo-Redwood City, Calif. (+3.6 percent), followed by Dallas-Plano-Irving, 

Texas, and Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach-Deerfield Beach, Fla. (+3.3 percent each). The only overthe-year percentage decreases in employment occurred in Camden, N.J. (-1.0 percent), and DetroitLivonia-Dearborn, Mich. (-0.7 percent). 

_____________ 

The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment news release for February 2014 is 

scheduled to be released on Friday, March 28, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). The Metropolitan Area 

Employment and Unemployment news release for February 2014 is scheduled to be released on 

Wednesday, April 9, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). 

Changes to Local Area Unemployment Statistics Data 

Effective with the release of 2013 annual average estimates on February 28, civilian labor force and 

unemployment data for all states, the District of Columbia, and the seven modeled substate areas 

presented in tables 1 and 2 of this news release were revised from 2009 through 2013 to incorporate 

updated inputs, new population controls, reestimation of models, and adjustment to new division and 

national control totals. Historical revisions for all model-based area estimates were loaded into the BLS 

time series database at that time. 

Civilian labor force and unemployment data for the non-modeled metropolitan areas and divisions 

presented in tables 1 and 2 of this news release have been revised for 2013 to incorporate updated inputs 

and adjustment to new state control totals. However, historical estimates for these areas and divisions in 

the BLS time series database have not been revised and do not match the data for 2013 in this news 

release. Revisions for all non-modeled metropolitan area and division estimates from 2009 through 2013 

will be loaded into the database on April 18. For more information, see www.bls.gov/lau/launews1.htm.

Changes to Current Employment Statistics Data 

Effective with this release, nonfarm payroll estimates for states and metropolitan areas (tables 3 and 4) 

have been revised as a result of annual benchmark processing to reflect 2013 employment counts 

primarily from the BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages. Not seasonally adjusted data back 

to April 2012 were revised. For more information on annual processing, see 

www.bls.gov/sae/benchmark2014.pdf. 
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 labormanagement 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 Orleans-Metairie-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 balance-of-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 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. 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 for states, metropolitan areas, and 

metropolitan divisions at the total nonfarm level. For states, 

data are seasonally adjusted at the supersector level as well. In 

some metropolitan areas deemed large enough to be subdivided 

into metropolitan divisions, the seasonally adjusted payroll 

employment totals are computed by aggregating the seasonally 

adjusted total nonfarm estimates for each of the component 

metropolitan divisions. Revisions of historical data for the most 

recent 5 years are made once a year, coincident with annual 

benchmark adjustments. 

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. 

Labor force and unemployment estimates. Measures 

of sampling error are not available for metropolitan areas or 

metropolitan divisions. Model-based error measures for states 

are available on the BLS website at 

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

are not available for the areas contained in this 

release. Information on recent data revisions for states and 

local areas is available online at 

www.bls.gov/lau/launews1.htm.

Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error are 

available for metropolitan areas or metropolitan divisions upon 

request. Measures of sampling error for states down to the 

supersector level are available on the BLS website at 

www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Measures of nonsampling 

error are not available for the areas contained in this 

release. Information on recent benchmark revisions is available 

online 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/.

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, 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 in that it is listed under Illinois for operational

reasons. Data for 2013 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, and are 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 2013 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.

NOTE: Data are counts of jobs by place of work. Data have been revised to reflect 2013 benchmark levels. Estimates subsequent to the current benchmark are preliminary

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.

NOTE: Data are counts of jobs by place of work. Data have been revised to reflect 2013 benchmark levels. Estimates subsequent to the current benchmark are preliminary 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. 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.
