STATE AND METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT:
SEPTEMBER 1995
Unemployment rates were lower in September 1995 than a month earlier
in 20 states, higher in 20 states and the District of Columbia, and
unchanged in 10 states, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S.
Department of Labor reported today. The national unemployment rate
remained at 5.6 percent in September. Nonfarm payroll employment increased
in 40 states and the District of Columbia over the month.
State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
New Jersey had the largest unemployment rate decrease from August to
September (0.9 percentage point), followed by California, Illinois, and
Texas (all 0.6 point). The declines in New Jersey's and California's rates
put them at their lowest levels in more than 4 years, while the decreases
in Illinois and Texas partially reversed recent increases. Florida had the
largest over-the-month rate increase (1.0 percentage point), more than
offsetting the prior month's decline. Pennsylvania's rate rose by 0.9
point to its highest rate in a year. The jobless rate in Delaware
increased by 0.6 point, returning to its June level. No other state had an
over-the-month change of more than one-half percentage point in either
direction.
Compared with a year earlier, unemployment rates were lower in 38
states in September. Nine of these states recorded over-the-year decreases
of a percentage point or more, led by Louisiana (1.5 points) and Wisconsin
and Arizona (both 1.2 points). The District of Columbia experienced the
largest rate increase over the year (1.0 percentage point), followed by
Montana (0.8 point) and Missouri and Tennessee (both 0.7 point). Eight
additional states recorded increases.
Nebraska continued to have the lowest unemployment rate in September
(2.1 percent), followed by three other midwestern states--South Dakota (2.8
percent), Minnesota (2.9 percent), and North Dakota (3.0 percent). Nine
other states had rates below 4.5 percent. At 9.1 percent, the District of
Columbia once again had the highest unemployment rate, followed by West
Virginia (8.4 percent), California (7.2 percent), Alaska (7.1 percent), and
Rhode Island (7.0 percent). Overall, 33 states had jobless rates below the
U.S. average, while 16 states and the District of Columbia had higher
rates. (See table 1 and chart 1.)
Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)
Forty states and the District of Columbia recorded gains in total
nonfarm employment in September. The service-producing sector continued
its strong pervasive upward pattern, while the goods-producing sector was
- 2 -
mixed with continued weakness in manufacturing and growth in construction
industries.
Twenty-eight states reported gains in the goods-producing sector; 37
states had gains in construction. Only 20 states had gains in
manufacturing.
Forty-three states had employment gains in the service-producing
sector. Twenty-seven states had over-the-month increases in transportation
and public utilities. Strong employment growth continued in wholesale and
retail trade, where 44 states reported over-the-month employment gains.
Thirty-eight states reported over-the-month increases in services. Of the
10 states experiencing September job losses, most were attributable to
losses in manufacturing. Several states experienced stronger-than-expected
seasonal movements in government due to the beginning of the school year.
Over the year, 46 states experienced employment growth. Most states
in the Mountain division had robust over-the-year total nonfarm employment
growth, while the New England, Middle Atlantic, Pacific, East North Central
and East South Central divisions had the slowest growth. (See chart 2.)
Nearly every state had over-the-year gains in wholesale and retail
trade and in services. Over one-half of the states had over-the-year
increases in manufacturing and construction employment.
Texas continued to lead the nation in adding jobs over the year with
260,000, followed by Florida (200,000) California and Georgia (both
130,000). The District of Columbia continued to lead the nation in job
losses over the year (-15,000), followed by Hawaii (-7,000) and
Mississippi (-5,000). The decline in the District of Columbia was mainly
attributable to government employment reductions. (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 September data are available, 104 had rates
below 4.5 percent, while 18 had rates higher than 7.5 percent. The lowest
rates were in Madison, Wis. (1.5 percent), and Fargo-Moorhead, N.D.-Minn.
(1.6 percent). Two areas in Texas recorded the highest unemployment rates:
McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, 17.5 percent, and Laredo, 14.0 percent. Kokomo,
Ind., experienced the largest over-the-year decrease in its jobless rate
(2.5 percentage points), followed by Bakersfield, Calif. (2.3 points).
Fifty-four other areas registered decreases of 1.0 percentage point or
more. Laredo, Tex., had the largest over-the-year increase, 6.1 percentage
- 3 -
points. Five other areas recorded increases of 1.0 percentage point or
more, but none greater than 1.2 points. (See table 5.)

The State and Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment release
for October 1995 is scheduled to be issued on Wednesday, November 29, 1995.
---------------------------------------------------------------
| Effective with the data for January 1996, scheduled for |
|release in early March, BLS plans to discontinue producing and |
|publishing state and area estimates derived directly from the |
|Current Population Survey (CPS). Because of anticipated budget|
|reductions, we expect that the CPS sample will no longer be of |
|sufficient size to directly provide data for the 11 large |
|states (contained in tables 1, 2, and 5), as well as the Los |
|Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area and New York City |
|(contained in table 5). Instead, estimates for these areas |
|will be based on the method currently used for the smaller |
|states and the District of Columbia. |
