    STATE AND METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT:  JUNE 1995
 
 
     Unemployment rates were lower in June 1995 than a month earlier in 24
states, higher in 19 states and the District of Columbia, and unchanged in
7 states, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor
reported today.  The national unemployment rate was 5.6 percent in June,
essentially unchanged from 5.7 percent in May.  Total nonfarm payroll
employment increased in 32 states over the month.
 
State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
 
     Illinois showed the largest unemployment rate decline between May and
June, 1.4 percentage points, to 4.1 percent.  California's jobless rate
decreased 0.9 percentage point to 7.6 percent.  Wisconsin (down 0.6 point)
and Arizona (down 0.5 point) were the only other states to report declines
of as much as half a percentage point.  Of the states with increases, none
was more than 0.6 percentage point.
 
     Over the year, 42 states experienced declining unemployment rates.
South Carolina recorded the largest drop (1.6 percentage points), followed
by Arizona (1.5 points) and Arkansas (1.4 points).  Eleven other states had
decreases of a percentage point or more.  The magnitude of increases among
the six states and the District of Columbia with higher unemployment rates
over the past year was small (0.6 percentage point or less).
 
     For the second month in a row, South Dakota had the lowest
unemployment rate, 2.3 percent in June.  Nebraska had the next lowest, 2.5
percent.  Fourteen other states recorded rates below 4.5 percent.  At 8.7
percent, the District of Columbia had the highest jobless rate, followed by
California and West Virginia, both 7.6 percent.  Overall, 33 states had
jobless rates below the U.S. rate, while 15 states and the District of
Columbia had higher rates.  (See table 1 and chart 1.)
 
Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)
 
     Employment in many states rebounded somewhat in June from a weak
showing in the prior month.  Utah once again led all states, with an over-
the-month increase of 0.7 percent.  Kansas and New Mexico also had sizable
advances--0.6 percent.  Delaware had the largest percentage decline ( -0.8
percent), and Michigan had the largest job loss (-15,000) over the month,
both due to slowdowns in manufacturing.
 
     Employment in the goods-producing industries showed mixed signs in
June.  While manufacturing remained weak, construction reversed the losses
 
                                  - 2 -
 
experienced in May.  Only 17 states and the District of Columbia had
manufacturing increases, but 31 states and the District of Columbia
experienced gains in construction.
 
     The service-producing sector added jobs in 36 states in June.  About
half of the states showed growth in transportation and public utilities;
finance, insurance, and real estate; and government.  About seven-tenths of
the states had increases in trade and services.
 
     Even though employment gains were not very large, they were spread
across nearly all geographic regions.  Only the East North Central states
lost jobs over the month.  The West North Central and West South Central
divisions each added 0.3 percent to payroll job totals.
 
     Over the year, seven states have experienced job increases in excess
of 4.0 percent.  The four largest gainers--Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and New
Mexico--were all Mountain states.  Only the District of Columbia (15,200)
lost more than 5,000 in employment.  (See chart 2.)
 
     NOTE:  Monthly payroll employment data are provided on a seasonally
adjusted basis for all states and the District of Columbia, permitting both
current and over-the-year comparisons of the data.  The state data are
intended for individual state analyses only.  Because the state data are
not designed for national aggregation, a summation could present a
misleading picture of national trends.  (See Technical Note.)
 
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
 
     Of the 271 areas for which June data are available, 90 had
unemployment rates below 4.5 percent, while 29 had rates higher than 7.5
percent.  The lowest rates were in Madison, Wis. (1.7 percent), and Sioux
Falls, S.D. (1.8 percent).  McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Tex., had the highest
unemployment rate--18.2 percent--followed by Laredo, Tex. (16.8 percent),
and Modesto, Calif. (15.8 percent).  Dutchess County, N.Y., experienced the
largest over-the-year reduction in its jobless rate--down 3.2 percentage
points.  Rates in 63 other areas declined by 1.0 point or more.  Laredo,
Tex., had the largest over-the-year increase, as its rate shot up 7.0
percentage points to 16.8 percent.  Four other areas experienced increases
of 1.0 point or more, but none changed by more than 1.7 points.
