METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — JULY 2011
Unemployment rates were lower in July than a year earlier in 257 of the 372 metropolitan areas, higher
in 94 areas, and unchanged in 21 areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Twelve areas
recorded jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent, while ten areas registered rates of less than 5.0 percent.
Two hundred thirty-two metropolitan areas reported over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll
employment, 133 reported decreases, and 7 had no change. The national unemployment rate in July was
9.3 percent, not seasonally adjusted, down from 9.7 percent a year earlier.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In July, 117 metropolitan areas reported jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent, down from 127 areas a
year earlier, while 62 areas posted rates below 7.0 percent, up from 54 areas in July 2010. El Centro,
Calif., and Yuma, Ariz., recorded the highest unemployment rates in July 2011, 30.8 and 30.0 percent,
respectively. All of the remaining 10 areas with jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent were located in
California. Bismarck, N.D., registered the lowest unemployment rate, 3.0 percent. The areas with the
next lowest rates were Fargo, N.D.-Minn., and Lincoln, Neb., 3.7 and 3.8 percent, respectively. Of the
10 areas with jobless rates of less than 5.0 percent, 8 were located in the West North Central census
division. A total of 219 areas recorded July unemployment rates below the U.S. figure of 9.3 percent,
150 areas reported rates above it, and 3 areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1 and the
map.)
The largest over-the-year unemployment rate decrease in July was registered in Rockford, Ill. (-3.3
percentage points), followed by Steubenville-Weirton, Ohio-W.Va. (-3.0 points). An additional 14 areas
recorded jobless rate decreases of at least 2.0 percentage points. Pascagoula, Miss., reported the largest
over-the-year jobless rate increase (+1.9 percentage points). Eight additional areas had increases of at
least a full percentage point from a year earlier.
In the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, the highest
unemployment rate in July was registered in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif., 14.7 percent.
Sixteen additional large areas posted rates of 10.0 percent or more. The lowest jobless rate among the
large areas was recorded in Oklahoma City, Okla., 5.5 percent, followed by Washington-ArlingtonAlexandria, D.C.-Va.-Md.-W.Va., 6.0 percent. Forty of the large areas reported over-the-year
unemployment rate decreases, while seven areas registered rate increases and two had no change. Las
Vegas-Paradise, Nev., experienced the largest unemployment rate decrease from July 2010 (-1.7
percentage points). Nine other large areas reported rate decreases of at least 1.0 percentage point. The
large area with the largest over-the-year jobless rate increase was San Antonio-New Braunfels, Texas
(+0.6 percentage point).
Metropolitan Division Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Eleven of the most populous metropolitan areas are made up of 34 metropolitan divisions, which are
essentially separately identifiable employment centers. In July 2011, Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Mich.,
registered the highest jobless rate among the divisions, 15.7 percent. Bethesda-Rockville-Frederick,
Md., and Nashua, N.H.-Mass., reported the lowest division rates, 5.6 percent each. (See table 2.)
Twenty-eight of the metropolitan divisions recorded over-the-year jobless rate decreases in July, three
registered increases, and three had no change. Lake County-Kenosha County, Ill.-Wis., posted the
largest rate decline from a year earlier (-1.4 percentage points). No division experienced a rate increase
greater than 0.2 percentage point over the year.
In 6 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 July. Boston-Cambridge-Quincy, Mass.N.H., recorded the largest rate difference among its divisions, 6.0 percentage points (LawrenceMethuen-Salem, Mass.-N.H., 11.6 percent, compared with Nashua, N.H.-Mass., 5.6 percent).
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In July, 232 metropolitan areas reported over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 133

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-Joliet-Naperville, 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 39
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 Internet at
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
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 www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Information on
recent benchmark revisions for states is available on the BLS
Web site at 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 December 1, 2009. 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 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 www.bls.gov/lau/.
Employment data from the CES program are available on the
BLS Web site at www.bls.gov/sae/.

NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Data for Puerto Rico are derived from a
monthly household survey similar to the Current Population Survey. Area
definitions are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 10-02,
dated December 1, 2009, and are available on the BLS Web site at

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 appears first in their titles. Davenport-Moline-Rock
Island, Iowa-Ill., is the exception in that it is listed under Illinois for operational
reasons. Data for 2010 have been revised to incorporate updated inputs and
adjustment to new state controls. Estimates for the latest month are subject to
revision the following month.

1 These 11 areas contain all of the 34 metropolitan divisions.
2
Part of the area (or division) is in one or more adjacent states.
3 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. 10-02, dated December 1, 2009, available at
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. 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-Joliet-Naperville, Ill.-Ind.-Wis.,
metropolitan areas, the division titles are similar but include only Massachusetts and
Illinois, respectively. Data for 2010 have been revised to incorporate updated inputs
and adjustment to new state controls. Estimates for the latest month are subject to
revision the following month.

Area definitions are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 10-02,
dated December 1, 2009, and available at 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 appears first in their titles.
Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill. is the exception since it is listed under Illinois for
operational reasons.
