STATE AND METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT:

APRIL 1995

Unemployment rates were higher in April 1995 than a month earlier in
33 states and the District of Columbia, lower in 10 states, and unchanged
in 7 states, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor
reported today. The national unemployment rate was 5.8 percent in April,
an increase of 0.3 percentage point from March. Nonfarm payroll employment
rose in 39 states over the month.
State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
Illinois and Massachusetts had the largest unemployment rate increases
from March to April, 1.3 percentage points each, followed by Florida with
an increase of 1.2 points. In all three cases, these increases more than
offset the prior month's declines and returned the jobless rates to about
January's levels. North Carolina, Ohio, and Delaware experienced over-themonth increases of 0.7 or 0.8 percentage point. No other state had a rate
increase over one-half percentage point. Alaska, New Hampshire, and Rhode
Island had the largest unemployment rate declines--0.5 percentage point
each.
Forty-five states showed declines in jobless rates over the year,
while three states and the District of Columbia experienced increases.
Thirteen states recorded over-the-year decreases of a percentage point or

more, led by Maine and West Virginia, both down 1.8 percentage points.
Another 13 states experienced declines between 0.6 and 0.9 percentage
point. North Carolina had the largest over-the-year increase in its
unemployment rate--0.6 percentage point.
Nebraska continued to have the lowest unemployment rate, 2.5 percent
in April, followed by three other Plains states--North Dakota (3.2
percent), South Dakota (3.3 percent), and Iowa (3.4 percent). The District
of Columbia had the highest rate (8.4 percent), followed by California (7.9
percent), Louisiana (7.6 percent), and West Virginia (7.3 percent). (See
table 1 and chart 1.)
Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)
Thirty-nine states reported gains in total nonfarm employment in
April. Utah had the largest over-the-month increase (0.6 percent),
followed by Iowa and North Dakota (both 0.4 percent). Alaska (-0.7
percent) and Colorado (-0.4 percent) had the largest job losses.
Within the goods-producing sector, over-the-month employment growth in
construction and in manufacturing occurred in about half the states.
Within the service-producing sector, 38 states reported over-the-month
employment increases in the services industry. Employment in trade also
- 2 increased in 38 states. States generally showed moderate growth in
transportation and public utilities; finance, insurance, and real estate;
and government. (See table 3.)
All the geographic divisions had gains over the month in total nonfarm
employment. The gains were strongest in the West South Central, New
England, West North Central, and the South Atlantic divisions.
Over the past year, job gains ranged from 6.1 percent in Nevada to
only 0.3 percent in Connecticut. Texas (285,000) and Florida (215,000)
added the most jobs. Only the District of Columbia (-1.8 percent), Hawaii
(-0.3 percent), and Rhode Island (-0.1 percent) reported losses over the
year. (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 April data are available, 102 had
unemployment rates below 4.5 percent, while 20 had rates higher than 7.7
percent. Modesto, Calif., had the highest unemployment rate at 16.8
percent, followed by McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, Tex., at 16.3 percent, and
Fresno, Calif., at 15.1 percent. The lowest rates were in Madison, Wis.
(2.1 percent), Iowa City, Iowa (2.2 percent), and Omaha, Neb. (2.3
percent). Two areas experienced over-the-year declines of more than 3.0
percentage points in their rates--Steubenville-Weirton, Ohio (down 3.6
points), and Los Angeles-Long Beach, Calif. (down 3.1 points). Laredo,
Tex., had the largest over-the-year increase, 4.9 percentage points.
Thirty other areas showed unemployment rate increases, but none greater
than 1.0 point. (See table 5.)
