STATE AND METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: MAY 1995
Unemployment rates were lower in May 1995 than a month earlier in 20
states, higher in 25 states and the District of Columbia, and unchanged in
5 states, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor
reported today. The national unemployment rate was 5.7 percent in May,
essentially unchanged from 5.8 percent in April. Nonfarm payroll
employment rose in fewer than half of the states over the month.
State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
South Dakota had the largest unemployment rate decrease from April to
May, 1.0 percentage point, followed by Arkansas and Massachusetts, both
down 0.9 point. For South Dakota and Arkansas, these declines brought
their rates--2.3 and 4.1 percent, respectively--to the lowest levels for
each since the beginning of the series in 1978. In Massachusetts, the
decline reversed much of the prior month's sizable increase. California,
Oregon, and Rhode Island had the largest over-the-month rate increases, 0.6
percentage point each. No other state had a rate change of over one-half
percentage point in either direction.
Forty-six states experienced declines in jobless rates over the year.
Nine of these states recorded over-the-year decreases of a percentage point
or more, led by Florida and Ohio, which were both down 1.7 percentage
points. Thirteen other states experienced declines of 0.6 to 0.9
percentage point. Montana's unemployment rate rose 0.6 percentage point
over the year, the largest increase of any state.
South Dakota's 2.3 percent rate was the lowest rate in the nation.
This was followed by three other Plains states--Nebraska (2.6 percent) and
Iowa and North Dakota (both 3.3 percent). The District of Columbia had the
highest rate (8.6 percent), followed by California (8.5 percent), West
Virginia (7.6 percent), and Louisiana (7.1 percent). Overall, 34 states
had jobless rates below the U.S. rate, while 13 states and the District of
Columbia had higher rates. (See table 1 and chart 1.)
Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)
The nation's payrolls showed signs of weakness in May, with 28 states
and the District of Columbia reporting losses in total nonfarm employment.
Among the states that showed employment growth in May, Utah had the largest
over-the-month increase (0.5 percent), followed by Kansas and Montana (both
0.4 percent). Wyoming (-0.8 percent) and Rhode Island (-0.6 percent) had
the largest job losses. (See table 3.)
Employment growth in the goods-producing sector slowed markedly, with
just a quarter of the states reporting over-the-month gains in construction
- 2 -
and manufacturing. Heavy rains and flooding contributed to the declines in
construction employment in a number of states, especially in the southern
and central areas of the country.
The service-producing sector also displayed weakness in May, as over
half of the states had smaller gains or larger declines than in the prior
month. Nevertheless, 36 states reported over-the-month employment
increases in the services industry. Half of the states reported employment
gains in trade, while two-fifths showed growth in transportation and public
utilities; finance, insurance, and real estate; and government.
Softness in payroll employment was spread across regions, as only four
of the nine geographic divisions had gains over the month in total nonfarm
employment, and they were 0.1 percent or less. The Middle Atlantic
division had the largest decline (-0.2 percent) in employment levels.
Over the past year, almost all states gained jobs, with the strongest
growth concentrated in the Mountain region. Employment increases ranged
from 5.8 percent in Nevada and Utah to only 0.2 percent in Connecticut.
Only the District of Columbia (-1.9 percent), Rhode Island (-0.3 percent),
and Hawaii (-0.1 percent) recorded 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 May data are available, 112 had rates below
4.5 percent, while 22 had rates higher than 7.5 percent. Modesto, Calif.,
had the highest unemployment rate at 17.4 percent, followed by McAllen-
Edinburg-Mission, Tex., at 16.7 percent, and Fresno, Calif., at 15.2
percent. The lowest rates were in Sioux Falls, S.D. (1.6 percent), and
Madison, Wis. (1.8 percent). Only one area experienced an over-the-year
rate decline greater than 3.0 percentage points--Mansfield, Ohio (down 3.4
points)--while 71 other areas showed decreases of 1.0 point or more.
Laredo, Tex., had the largest over-the-year increase, 4.7 percentage
points, followed by Fresno, Calif., up 3.0 points. Seven other areas
showed unemployment rate increases of 1.0 percentage point or more. (See
table 5.)
