METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: NOVEMBER 2004
In November, 259 metropolitan areas recorded lower unemployment rates
than a year earlier, 63 areas had higher rates, and 9 areas had rates that
were unchanged, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of
Labor reported today. Twenty-four metropolitan areas registered jobless
rates below 3.0 percent, with 12 of these located in the South and 7 in the
Midwest. Eight areas had unemployment rates of at least 10.0 percent. Six
of these areas were located in California, and the other two were along the
Mexican border in other states. The national unemployment rate in November
was 5.2 percent, not seasonally adjusted.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In November, 103 metropolitan areas had unemployment rates below 4.0
percent, up from 71 areas a year earlier, while 32 areas registered rates
of at least 7.0 percent, down from 52 areas in November 2003. Bryan-
College Station, Texas, recorded the lowest jobless rate, 1.7 percent,
followed by Charlottesville, Va., Fargo-Moorhead, N.D.-Minn., and Gaines-
ville, Fla., 2.0 percent each. This was the 10th consecutive month that
Bryan-College Station had the lowest unemployment rate. All eight areas
with the lowest jobless rates were home to large state universities. Yuma,
Ariz., again posted the highest unemployment rate, 20.0 percent. The next
highest rates were recorded in areas located in the agricultural Central
Valley of California--Visalia-Tulare-Porterville, 15.5 percent; Merced and
Yuba City, 13.0 percent each; Fresno, 12.3 percent; and Bakersfield, 11.9
percent. (See table 1.)
Decatur, Ala., recorded the largest over-the-year unemployment rate
decrease (-3.5 percentage points) in November. This area had experienced
temporary manufacturing layoffs a year ago. McAllen-Edinburg-Mission,
Texas, reported the next largest jobless rate decrease (-2.8 percentage
points), followed by New York, N.Y., Brownsville-Harlingen-San Benito,
Texas, and San Jose, Calif. (-2.3 points each), and Richland-Kennewick-
Pasco, Wash. (-2.0 points). Sixty-eight other areas had rate decreases
of at least 1.0 percentage point. Sumter, S.C., registered the largest
jobless rate increase over the year (+2.2 percentage points). The next
largest rate increases were reported in Lansing-East Lansing, Mich. (+1.7
percentage points), and Punta Gorda, Fla., and St. Joseph, Mo. (+1.6 points
each). Punta Gorda sustained major damage from Hurricane Charley in August.
Ten additional areas had over-the-year rate increases of 1.0 percentage point
or more; half of these were in Pennsylvania.
- 2 -
Of the 51 metropolitan areas with a 1990 Census population of 1 million
or more, 44 areas reported lower jobless rates than in November 2003 and 7
posted higher rates. Orange County, Calif., and Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-
W.Va., continued to record the lowest unemployment rates among the large
areas, 2.9 and 3.1 percent, respectively. November marked the first month
since December 2001 that Orange County had a lower rate than the Washington
metropolitan area. The next lowest jobless rates were registered in
Middlesex-Somerset-Hunterdon, N.J., 3.3 percent; San Diego, Calif., 3.4
percent; and Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, Fla., 3.5 percent. The large
areas with the highest unemployment rates were Detroit, Mich., 6.6 percent;
Cleveland-Lorain-Elyria, Ohio; Memphis, Tenn.-Ark.-Miss.; and Portland-
Vancouver, Ore.-Wash., 6.4 percent each. Over the year, the largest rate
decreases among the large areas occurred in New York, N.Y., and San Jose,
Calif. (-2.3 percentage points each), and Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill,
N.C.-S.C., and Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Wash. (-1.7 points each). Eleven
additional areas reported jobless rate declines of at least 1.0 percentage
point. Columbus, Ohio, where the rate rose 0.6 percentage point over the
year, was the only large area to experience an increase greater than 0.3
percentage point.
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Among the 274 metropolitan areas for which November 2004 nonfarm payroll
data were available, 216 reported over-the-year increases in employment, 52
recorded decreases, and 6 had no change. The largest over-the-year employ-
ment increases were posted in Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va. (+70,400),
Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz. (+51,600), Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+43,600), St. Louis,
Mo.-Ill. (+39,500), New York, N.Y. (+37,400), Houston, Texas (+30,600), and

Over the year, nonfarm employment increased in 35 of the 39 metropolitan
areas with annual average employment levels above 750,000 in 2003. The
largest over-the-year percentage increases in employment in these large
metropolitan areas were posted in Las Vegas, Nev.-Ariz. (+5.2 percent),
Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, N.C.-S.C. (+3.2 percent), Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz.
(+3.1 percent), St. Louis, Mo.-Ill. (+3.0 percent), Riverside-San Bernardino,
Calif. (+2.6 percent), Washington, D.C.-Md.-Va.-W.Va. (+2.5 percent), Orlando,

the largest areas, Detroit, Mich., and San Jose, Calif., had the highest over-
the-year percentage decreases in employment (-1.2 percent each), followed by
Indianapolis, Ind. (-0.2 percent).
Over the year, employment growth was most widespread in education and
health services, with 215 of 274 metropolitan areas experiencing job gains in
this industry sector. Many areas also experienced employment growth in pro-
fessional and business services; construction; and leisure and hospitality.
Manufacturing remained the weakest industry, with 139 metropolitan areas post-
ing employment losses.

| Planned changes in Local Area Unemployment Statistics |
| and in Metropolitan Area Designations |
| |
| Beginning with the release of data for January 2005 in March, |
| a redesigned method for producing labor force estimates for census |
| regions, divisions, states, and selected substate areas will be |
| implemented. The redesigned method encompasses a number of changes: |
| (1) the introduction of improved time-series regression models for |
| all states, the District of Columbia, New York City, the Los An- |
| geles-Long Beach-Glendale metropolitan division (currently the Los |
| Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area), and the respective balances |
| of New York and California; (2) the introduction of real-time |
| benchmarking to national Current Population Survey (CPS) estimates |
| of employment and unemployment; and (3) the introduction of time- |
| series regression models for six additional substate areas and |
| their respective balances of state. The estimates also will reflect |
| routine annual updates to population estimates from the U.S. Census |
| Bureau. More information on the changes is available from the Bureau|
| of Labor Statistics, Division of Local Area Unemployment Statistics |
| Web site at http://www.bls.gov/lau/lauschanges2005.htm. |
| |
| Other changes affecting the estimation methodology for the substate|
| areas include: (1) implementation of Census 2000-based geographic |
| area definitions; (2) the incorporation of Census 2000 inputs for |
| estimation; and (3) updates in substate estimation methodology. All |
| data from January 2000 forward will be revised to incorporate all of |
| these changes. Also, in order to present a more consistent substate |
| series, the substate data for 1990-99 wil be revised to reflect new |
| area definitions and statewide controls. |
| |
| In addition to the changes for the local area unemployment |
| statistics program described above, both the metropolitan area |
| labor force data presented in table 1 of this news release and |
| the metropolitan area nonfarm payroll employment data presented |
| in table 2 of this release will be revised to reflect the in- |
| troduction of newly defined metropolitan areas based on new |
| standards and the results of Census 2000. Data for the new |
| metropolitan statistical area designations will be published, |
| along with those for newly created metropolitan divisions, |
| starting with the January 2005 Metropolitan Area news release |
| on March 17, 2005. Metropolitan New England City and Town |
| Areas (NECTAs) and NECTA Divisions will be used for the six |
| New England States, rather than county-based areas. Compared |
| with 1990-census designated areas, these changes will increase |
| the number of Metropolitan Statistical Areas and Metropolitan |
| NECTAs to 375. Both the metropolitan area labor force data and |
| the nonfarm payroll employment data will be revised back to |
| 1990 to reflect the changes in metropolitan area designations. |
| More information about the changes to metropolitan areas is |
| available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Division of |
| Local Area Unemployment Statistics Web site at |
| http://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. |

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.
- 6 -
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.
Additional information
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,
DC 20402 (telephone 202-512-1800).
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/).
