STATE AND METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT:

APRIL 1994

Unemployment rates were lower in April than in the prior month in
27 states and the District of Columbia, higher in 20 states, and
unchanged in 3 states, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S.
Department of Labor reported today. The national unemployment rate
was 6.4 percent in April, compared with 6.5 in both March and
February. Employment on nonfarm payrolls was higher in April than in
March in 41 states.
State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
The unemployment rates in the District of Columbia and four states-North Dakota, Rhode Island, Texas, and West Virginia--had declines of 1
percentage point or more from March to April. In contrast, California,
with a 1 percentage point increase, was the only state to have a sizable
increase in its unemployment rate. (See table 1.) California and West
Virginia had rates above 8.5 percent in April, while 15 states had rates of
4.9 percent or less. (See map 1.)
Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)
Over-the-month increases in payroll employment continued in
April, with gains posted in 41 states. Most of these increases were

small, as only nine states had gains of 0.5 percent or more. The
largest percentage increases occurred in Delaware, New Mexico, and
Maine--all about 1.0 percent. The trade and services industries had
increases in four-fifths of the states; finance, insurance, and real
estate and government rose in about two-thirds. (See table 3.)
Payroll employment increased in 48 states between April 1993 and
April 1994. Increases were 2 percent or more in 29 states. The
largest percentage increases occurred in Nevada (7.2 percent), Utah
(6.7 percent), and Idaho (6.2 percent). The only declines were
recorded in the District of Columbia (-1.5 percent), Hawaii (-1.5
percent), and California (-0.5 percent). (See map 2.)
Construction employment was up over the year in over four-fifths
of the states, with nine states having increases in excess of 10
percent. Manufacturing gains were reported in 31 states, located
primarily in the Central and Mountain divisions of the nation. Trade
employment increased in all states except California, Connecticut, and
Hawaii and in the District of Columbia. Services employment increased
in all but one state, Hawaii. (See table 3.)
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.)
- 2 Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Of the 261 areas for which April data are available, 23 areas had
unemployment rates of 8.5 percent or higher, while 99 had rates below 5.0
percent. Modesto, Calif., had the highest unemployment rate (17.1
percent), followed by Fresno, Calif. (14.9 percent), and Bakersfield,
Calif. (14.6 percent). The lowest rates were in Raleigh-Durham-Chapel
Hill, N.C. (1.9 percent), Sioux Falls, S.D. (2.0 percent), and Iowa City,
Iowa (2.2 percent). (See table 5.)

-------------------------------------------------------------|
State and area labor force data beginning in January 1994|
|are not directly comparable with data for 1993 and prior years|
|as a result of the introduction of the redesigned Current
|
|Population Survey. Data comparisons also are affected by the |
|incorporation of 1990 census-based population controls and
|
|other methodological changes. These changes are described in |
|greater detail in "Revisions in State and Area Estimates

NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Data for
Puerto Rico are derived from a monthly household survey
similar to the Current Population Survey. Data, beginning
1994, are not directly comparable with those for 1993
and prior years as a result of the redesign of the CPS.

In addition, data comparisons are affected by the
incorporation of new population controls and other
methodological changes. For additional information,

1/ Published earlier in The Employment Situation
news release, except for Puerto Rico.
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. Data, beginning
1994, are not directly comparable with those for 1993
and prior years as a result of the redesign of the CPS.

In addition, data comparisons are affected by the
incorporation of new population controls and other
methodological changes. For additional information,
see "Revisions in State and Area Estimates Effective
January 1994" in the March 1994 issue of Employment
and Earnings.
