METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: AUGUST 2004
In August, 268 metropolitan areas recorded lower unemployment rates
than a year earlier, 50 areas had higher rates, and 13 areas had rates
that were unchanged, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department
of Labor reported today. Twenty metropolitan areas had jobless rates below
3.0 percent, with eight of these located in the South and seven in the Mid-
west. Eight areas reported unemployment rates of at least 10.0 percent;
five of these were located in California and two were along the Mexican
border in other states. The national unemployment rate was 5.4 percent,
not seasonally adjusted, in August.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Ninety-five metropolitan areas reported jobless rates below 4.0 per-
cent in August, up from 54 areas a year earlier, while 36 areas registered
unemployment rates of at least 7.0 percent, down from 66 areas in August
2003. Bryan-College Station, Texas, recorded the lowest jobless rate in
August, 1.9 percent, followed by Fort Walton Beach, Fla., 2.1 percent, and
Enid, Okla., and Fargo-Moorhead, N.D.-Minn., 2.2 percent each. Of the 20
areas with rates below 3.0 percent, many were home to large state univer-
sities. Yuma, Ariz., again posted the highest unemployment rate, 29.8 per-
cent, largely due to a seasonal increase in agricultural layoffs. The next
highest rates were recorded in Visalia-Tulare-Porterville, Calif., 12.6 per-
cent, and McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Texas, 11.5 percent. (See table 1.)
In August, Lake Charles, La., experienced the largest over-the-year
unemployment rate decrease (-3.2 percentage points), followed by El Paso,
Texas (-2.9 points). Ten additional areas reported rate declines of at

| Hurricane Effects |
| |
| Hurricane Charley struck Florida during the August survey |
| reference period. BLS made additional data collection efforts for |
| the hurricane-affected counties to ensure that payroll survey re- |
| sponse rates were at normal levels. An examination of the survey |
| data suggests that there were no discernable weather-related ef- |
| fects on payroll employment in Florida as measured by the estab- |
| lishment survey and presented in table 2 of this release. This |
| was likely due to the fact that the storm hit late in the report- |
| ing period for most of the survey respondents. For the storm to |
| have affected payroll employment in August, people would have had |
| to be off work for the entire pay period and not paid for the |
| time missed. (In the labor force data presented in table 1, |
| people who miss work for weather-related events are counted as em- |
| ployed, whether or not they are paid for the time off.) |
| |
| Tropical Storm Gaston and Hurricanes Frances and Ivan occurred |
| well after the August survey reference period and, therefore, had |
| no effect on the August data. |

least 2.0 percentage points from last year, and 70 other areas had rate
decreases of 1.0 to 1.9 points. Over half of the 82 areas with unemploy-
ment rate decreases of at least 1.0 percentage point were located in the
South. Steubenville-Weirton, Ohio-W.Va., again registered the largest
over-the-year jobless rate increase (+3.1 percentage points). The next
largest rate increases were reported in Scranton--Wilkes-Barre--Hazelton,
Pa. (+1.2 percentage points), and Gadsden, Ala. (+1.1 points). Eight ad-
ditional areas had over-the-year rate increases of one-half percentage
point or more, though none was larger than 0.7 point.
Of the 51 metropolitan areas with a 1990 census population of 1 mil-
lion or more, 45 areas reported lower jobless rates than in August 2003,
5 posted higher rates, and 1 had no change. Orange County, Calif., and
Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va., recorded the lowest unemployment rates
among the large areas, 3.2 percent each. San Diego, Calif., had the next
lowest rate, 3.7 percent. The large areas with the highest unemployment
rates were Portland-Vancouver, Ore.-Wash., 6.9 percent, and Detroit, Mich.,
and Miami, Fla., 6.6 percent each. San Jose, Calif., registered the largest
over-the-year jobless rate decrease (-2.6 percentage points), followed by
Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, N.C.-S.C. (-1.8 points). Seventeen additional
large areas reported jobless rate declines of at least 1.0 percentage point;
no area had an over-the-year rate increase greater than 0.3 point.
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Among the 274 metropolitan areas for which August 2004 nonfarm payroll
data were available, 192 posted over-the-year increases in employment, 78
recorded decreases, and 4 had no change. The largest over-the-year employ-
ment increases were posted in Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va. (+70,400), New
York, N.Y. (+49,300), Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz. (+40,200), Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz.
(+38,900), and St. Louis, Mo.-Ill. (+33,800). The largest over-the-year per-
centage increases in employment occurred in Sheboygan, Wis. (+5.9 percent),
Dover, Del. (+5.5 percent), Laredo, Texas (+4.9 percent), Las Vegas, Nev.-
Ariz. (+4.7 percent), and Fort Myers-Cape Coral, Fla. (+4.2 percent).
The largest over-the-year employment declines were reported in Detroit,
Mich. (-30,200), San Jose, Calif. (-10,700), Hartford, Conn. (-8,500),
Lansing-East Lansing, Mich. (-8,400), and Saginaw-Bay City-Midland, Mich.
(-8,300). The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in employment were
reported in Saginaw-Bay City-Midland, Mich. (-4.8 percent), Steubenville-
Weirton, Ohio-W.Va. (-4.4 percent), Houma, La. (-3.8 percent), Lansing-East
Lansing, Mich. (-3.6 percent), and Enid, Okla. (-3.5 percent).
Over the year, nonfarm employment increased in 32 of the 39 metropolitan
areas with annual average employment levels above 750,000 in 2003. The lar-
gest over-the-year percentage increases in employment in these metropolitan
areas occurred in Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+4.7 percent), St. Louis, Mo.-Ill.
(+2.6 percent), Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz., and Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va.
(+2.5 percent each), Orlando, Fla. (+2.4 percent), and Riverside-San Bernar-
dino, Calif. (+2.2 percent). Among the 39 large areas, Detroit, Mich., had
the largest over-the-year percentage decline in employment (-1.5 percent),
followed by San Jose, Calif. (-1.3 percent), Indianapolis, Ind. (-0.8 per-
cent), and Boston, Mass.-N.H. (-0.4 percent).

Employment growth was most widespread in education and health services,
with 212 of 274 metropolitan areas experiencing over-the-year employment
gains in this industry sector. Employment gains also were prevalent in
leisure and hospitality and in professional and business services, with
gains occurring in 175 and 172 metropolitan areas, respectively. Manu-
facturing remained the weakest industry, with 154 metropolitan areas post-
ing employment losses over the year.

| Correction of Nonfarm Payroll Employment Data for Missouri |
| |
| On August 27, BLS published corrections to Missouri total non- |
| farm and government employment data for July 2004. The estimation |
| error that affected the July 2004 data also was found to have af- |
| fected the July and August data in 2001, 2002, and 2003 as well. |
| As a result, total nonfarm and government employment data for Mis- |
| souri and the metropolitan areas within Missouri have been corrected |
| for July and August of 2001-03. The data for Missouri and its metro- |
| politan areas shown in table 2 of this release reflect these correc- |
| tions. The complete corrected time series are available on the BLS |
| Web site at http://www.bls.gov/sae/. |
| |
| The corrections did not materially affect the overall trends in |
| the employment data previously published for Missouri and its metro- |
| politan areas, only the magnitude of the summer layoffs and the re- |
| turn from layoffs over the June-September time periods for each year. |

Technical Note
This release presents labor force and unemployment data from
the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program (table 1)
for 337 metropolitan areas, including those in Puerto Rico. Nonfarm
payroll employment estimates from the Current Employment Statistics
(CES) program (table 2) are provided for over 270 of these 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 labor force includes both the employed and the unemployed.
Employed persons are those who did any work at all for pay or
profit in the survey 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 have 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 did not work at all (in the
reference week), have actively looked for a job (sometime in the
4-week period ending with the survey reference week), and are
currently available for work; persons on layoff expecting recall
need not be looking for work to be counted as unemployed.
Method of estimation. Effective January 1996, estimates for
all states, the District of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long Beach
metropolitan area, and New York City are produced using estimating
equations based on regression techniques. For all other substate
areas, estimates are prepared through indirect estimation
procedures. 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 (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 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 with January estimates. The adjusted estimates
reflect updated population data from the U.S. Census Bureau and
any revisions in the other data sources. In addition, data for
all states, the District of Columbia, and the two large substate
areas noted are adjusted annually to equal the CPS annual
averages, usually effective with January estimates. All other
substate estimates are adjusted to add to the revised (benchmarked)
state estimates.
- 5 -
Employment-from the CES program
Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on
establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the pay
period which 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 2002 version of the North American Industry
Classification System.
Method of estimation. 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 10 percent of CES published
series which have sample-based estimates.
Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted annually
to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks, derived
principally from tax reports which 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
survey and administrative data 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 are also 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 special
estimation processes used. The sums of individual items may not
always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of
rounding. With respect to the LAUS program, unemployment rates
are computed, in most instances, from unrounded data rather than
from data that may be displayed in the tables; differences,
however, are generally insignificant.
Labor force and unemployment estimates. Measures of sampling
error, in the form of the standard errors for state annual average
estimates derived from the CPS, are available in the annual BLS
bulletin, Geographic Profile of Employment and Unemployment.
Error measures cannot be computed for substate areas because of
the special estimation processes used. Measures of nonsampling
error for CPS data are not available, but additional information
on the subject is provided in the BLS monthly periodical,
Employment and Earnings.

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 on the BLS Web site
at (http://www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm). Information on recent
benchmark revisions for states is available at (http://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, dated June 30, 1996. A
detailed list of the geographic definitions is published annually
in the May issue of Employment and Earnings.

More complete information on the technical procedures used to
develop these estimates and additional data appear in Employment
and Earnings, which is available by subscription from the Superin-
tendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington,

Estimates of unadjusted and seasonally adjusted labor force
and unemployment data for states, census regions and divisions,
and two areas are available in the news release, Regional and
State Employment and Unemployment. Estimates of labor force and
unemplopment 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 BLS Web site at
(http://stats.bls.gov/lau/). Employment data from the CES
program are available at (http://stats.bls.gov/sae/).
