METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: JUNE 2009
Unemployment rates were higher in June than a year earlier in all 372 metropolitan areas, the
Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. Eighteen areas recorded
jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent, while 9 areas registered rates below 5.0 percent. The national
unemployment rate in June was 9.7 percent, not seasonally adjusted, up from 5.7 percent a year earlier.
Among the 369 metropolitan areas for which nonfarm payroll data were available, 352 areas reported
over-the-year declines in employment, 16 reported increases, and 1 had no change.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In June, 144 metropolitan areas reported jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent, up from 6 areas a year
earlier, while 62 areas posted rates below 7.0 percent, down from 312 areas in June 2008. El Centro,
Calif., recorded the highest unemployment rate, 27.5 percent, followed by Yuma, Ariz., 23.1 percent.
Among the 18 areas with jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent, 8 were located in California and 5 were in
Michigan. Bismarck, N.D., registered the lowest jobless rate in June, 3.8 percent, followed by Manhattan, Kan., and Rapid City, S.D., 4.6 percent each. Overall, 152 areas posted unemployment rates above
the U.S. figure of 9.7 percent, 216 areas reported rates below it, and 4 areas had the same rate. (See
table 1 and the map.)
For the sixth consecutive month, all 372 metropolitan areas had over-the-year unemployment rate
increases. Two areas in Indiana that experienced layoffs in transportation equipment manufacturing
recorded the largest jobless rate increases from June 2008: Kokomo (+11.8 percentage points) and

Elkhart-Goshen (+10.0 points). The Michigan areas of Monroe (+8.6 percentage points), MuskegonNorton Shores (+8.2 points), and Detroit-Warren-Livonia (+8.1 points) had the next largest over-theyear rate increases. Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, N.C., also had a rate increase of 8.1 percentage points,
and Bend, Ore., and Janesville, Wis., had increases of 8.0 points each. An additional 22 areas registered
unemployment rate increases of 6.0 percentage points or more, and another 56 areas had rate increases
of 5.0 to 5.9 points.
Of the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, Detroit-WarrenLivonia, Mich., reported the highest unemployment rate in June, 17.1 percent. The large areas with the
next highest rates were Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif., 13.7 percent; Charlotte-GastoniaConcord, N.C.-S.C., 12.4 percent; Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev., 12.3 percent; and Providence-Fall RiverWarwick, R.I., 12.1 percent. Eighteen additional large areas posted rates of 10.0 percent or more. The
large areas with the lowest jobless rates in June were Oklahoma City, Okla., 6.0 percent; WashingtonArlington-Alexandria, D.C.-Va.-Md.-W.Va., 6.6 percent; and San Antonio, Texas, 6.9 percent. All 49
large areas registered over-the-year unemployment rate increases of at least 2.0 percentage points.
Detroit-Warren-Livonia, Mich., had the largest jobless rate increase from a year earlier (+8.1 percentage
points). The areas with the next largest rate increases were Portland-Vancouver-Beaverton, Ore.-Wash.
(+6.3 percentage points), Charlotte-Gastonia-Concord, N.C.-S.C. (+6.1 points), and Las Vegas-Paradise,
Nev. (+6.0 points). Four additional large areas recorded rate increases of 5.0 percentage points or more.
Metropolitan Division Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Eleven of the most populous metropolitan areas are composed of 34 metropolitan divisions, which
are essentially separately identifiable employment centers. In June, the two divisions that comprise the
Detroit-Warren-Livonia, Mich., metropolitan area registered the highest jobless rates: Detroit-LivoniaDearborn, 18.5 percent, and Warren-Troy-Farmington Hills, 16.2 percent. The division with the next
highest rate was Lawrence-Methuen-Salem, Mass.-N.H., 13.1 percent. Bethesda-Frederick-Rockville,
Md., reported the lowest unemployment rate among the divisions, 5.9 percent. Washington-ArlingtonAlexandria, D.C.-Va.-Md.-W.Va., posted the next lowest rate, 6.8 percent. (See table 2.)
In June, all 34 metropolitan divisions recorded over-the-year jobless rate increases of at least 2.5
percentage points. Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Mich., and Warren-Troy-Farmington Hills, Mich.,
experienced the largest rate increases (+8.3 and +8.1 percentage points, respectively). Three additional
divisions reported over-the-year rate increases of 5.0 percentage points or more.
In 5 of the 11 metropolitan areas that contain divisions, the ranges between the highest and lowest
division jobless rates were 2.0 percentage points or more in June. Boston-Cambridge-Quincy, Mass.N.H., posted the largest rate difference among its divisions, 6.0 percentage points (Lawrence-MethuenSalem, Mass.-N.H., 13.1 percent, compared with Framingham, Mass., and Nashua, N.H.-Mass., 7.1 percent each).
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In June, 352 metropolitan areas reported over-the-year decreases in nonfarm payroll employment,
16 reported increases, and 1 had no change. The largest over-the-year decrease in employment occurred

Publication of Payroll Employment Series for Small Metropolitan Areas Resumed
Effective with the release of June 2009 data on July 17, BLS resumed publication of
payroll employment series for 65 small metropolitan areas that were discontinued from
the establishment survey in March 2008 due to a reduction in funding that resulted from
the 2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act enacted on December 26, 2007. The funds to
produce these series were restored with the 2009 Omnibus Appropriations Act enacted on
March 11, 2009. Publication of metropolitan area hours and earnings series will resume
on August 21, 2009, with the release of July 2009 data. The 65 metropolitan areas for
which BLS resumed publication of nonfarm employment data are listed on the BLS Web
site at http://www.bls.gov/sae/msarestoration.htm.
Technical Note
This release presents labor force and unemployment
data from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS)
program (tables 1 and 2) for 372 metropolitan statistical areas
and metropolitan New England City and Town Areas
(NECTAs), plus 8 areas in Puerto Rico. Estimates for 34
metropolitan and NECTA divisions also are presented.
Nonfarm payroll employment estimates from the Current
Employment Statistics (CES) program (tables 3 and 4) are
provided for most of the same 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 LAUS program measures
employment and unemployment on a place-of-residence
basis. The universe for each is the civilian noninstitutional
population 16 years of age and over. Employed persons are
those who did any work at all for pay or profit in the
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 had 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 were not employed
during the reference week (based on the definition above),
had actively looked for a job sometime in the 4-week period
ending with the reference week, and were currently available
for work; persons on layoff expecting recall need not be
looking for work to be counted as unemployed. The labor
force is the sum of employed and unemployed persons. The
unemployment rate is the number of unemployed as a percent
of the labor force.
Method of estimation. Estimates for states, the District
of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale
metropolitan division, and New York City are produced using
time-series models with real-time benchmarking to national
CPS totals. Model-based estimation was extended to the
following areas and their respective balances of state in 2005:
the Chicago-Naperville-Joliet, IL Metropolitan Division;
Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, OH Metropolitan Statistical Area;
Detroit-Warren-Livonia, MI Metropolitan Statistical Area;
Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, FL Metropolitan Division;
New Orleans-Metairie-Kenner, LA Metropolitan Statistical
Area; and Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, WA Metropolitan
Division. (Model-based estimation of the New OrleansMetairie-Kenner metropolitan area was suspended following
Hurricane Katrina; the indirect estimation methods described
below will be used for this area until further notice.)
Modeling improves the statistical basis of the estimation for
these areas and provides important tools for analysis, such as
measures of errors and seasonally adjusted series. For all
other substate areas in this release, estimates are prepared
through indirect estimation procedures using a building-block
approach. 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 insurance (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 or balanceof-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 implemented with January estimates.
The adjusted model-based estimates reflect updated
population data from the U.S. Census Bureau, any revisions
in the other data sources, and model reestimation. All
substate estimates are reestimated and adjusted to add to the
revised model-based estimates.
Employment—from the CES program
Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on
establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the
pay period that 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 2007 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 44
percent of CES published series which have insufficient
sample for direct sample-based estimates.
Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted
annually to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks,
derived principally from tax reports that 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 surveys, administrative data, and modeling 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 also are 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 particular estimation
processes used. The sums of individual items may not
always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of
rounding.
Unemployment rates are computed from
unrounded data and thus may differ slightly from rates
computed using the rounded data displayed in the tables.
Labor force and unemployment estimates. Modelbased error measures are available for states on the BLS Web
site at http://www.bls.gov/lau/lastderr.htm. Measures of
nonsampling error are not available, but additional
information on the subject is provided in Employment and
Earnings Online at http://www.bls.gov/opub/ee/home.htm.
Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error
for state CES data at the supersector level and for metro-
politan area CES data at the total nonfarm level are available
online at http://www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Information
on recent benchmark revisions for states is available on the
BLS Web site 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 on November 20, 2008. Data
reflect New England City and Town Area (NECTA)
definitions, rather than county-based definitions, in the six
New England States. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is available at http://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm.
Additional information
More complete information on the technical procedures
used to develop these estimates and additional data appear in
Employment and Earnings Online.
Estimates of unadjusted and seasonally adjusted labor
force and unemployment data for states, census regions and
divisions, and seven substate areas are available in the news
release, Regional and State Employment and Unemployment.
Estimates of labor force and unemployment 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 Internet at http://www.bls.gov/lau/.
Employment data from the CES program are available on the
BLS Web site at http://www.bls.gov/sae/.

Part of the area (or division) is in one or more adjacent states.
All of the division is in one or more adjacent states.
p = preliminary.
NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Area definitions are based on Office of
Management and Budget Bulletin No. 09-01, dated November 20, 2008, and are
available at http://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm. Areas in the six New England
states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas
in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states.
They are listed under the state that corresponds to the first city in their title.
3
Metropolitan divisions are listed under their metropolitan areas. Some divisions lie in
more than one state, and some, like Camden, N.J., are totally outside the states
under which their metropolitan areas are listed. Three sets of metropolitan areas
and divisions have similar or identical titles. For Washington-Arlington-Alexandria,
D.C.-Va.-Md.-W.Va., the metropolitan area and division titles are identical. For the
Boston-Cambridge-Quincy, Mass.-N.H., and Chicago-Naperville-Joliet, Ill.-Ind.-Wis.,
metropolitan areas, the division titles are similar but include only Massachusetts and
Illinois, respectively. Estimates for the latest month are subject to revision the
following month.

two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles.
Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill., and Weirton-Steubenville, W. Va.-Ohio, are the
exceptions in that they are listed under Illinois and Ohio, respectively, for operational
reasons.
