METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — FEBRUARY 2013
Unemployment rates were lower in February than a year earlier in 287 of the 372 metropolitan areas,
higher in 69 areas, and unchanged in 16 areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Eight
areas had jobless rates of at least 15.0 percent, and 22 areas had rates of less than 5.0 percent. Three
hundred three metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 58 had
decreases, and 11 had no change. The national unemployment rate in February was 8.1 percent, not
seasonally adjusted, down from 8.7 percent a year earlier.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In February, 61 metropolitan areas had jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent, down from 81 areas a year
earlier, while 120 areas had rates below 7.0 percent, up from 87 areas in February 2012. Yuma, Ariz.,
and El Centro, Calif., had the highest unemployment rates in February 2013, at 25.6 and 24.2 percent,
respectively. Midland, Texas, had the lowest unemployment rate, 3.2 percent. A total of 208 areas had
February unemployment rates below the U.S. figure of 8.1 percent, 157 areas had rates above it, and 7
areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1 and the map.)
Yuba City, Calif., had the largest over-the-year unemployment rate decrease in February (-2.5
percentage points), followed by Ocala, Fla., and Salinas, Calif. (-2.4 points each). Eighty-nine other
areas had rate declines of at least 1.0 percentage point. Yuma, Ariz., had the largest over-the-year
jobless rate increase (+3.1 percentage points), followed by Decatur, Ill. (+2.8 points).
Of the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, Riverside-San
Bernardino-Ontario, Calif., had the highest unemployment rate in February, 10.8 percent. Three
additional large areas had rates of 10.0 percent or more. Oklahoma City, Okla., had the lowest jobless
rate among the large areas, 4.9 percent, followed by Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas, at 5.4
percent. Forty-one of the large areas had over-the-year unemployment rate decreases, while five areas
had increases and three had no change. Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev., had the largest unemployment rate
decline from February 2012 (-2.3 percentage points). Chicago-Joliet-Naperville, Ill.-Ind.-Wis., had the
largest over-the-year jobless rate increase in a large area (+1.2 percentage points).
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 February 2013, Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn,
Mich., had the highest jobless rate among the divisions, 11.3 percent. Bethesda-Rockville-Frederick,
Md., had the lowest division rate, 5.2 percent. (See table 2.)
Twenty-seven of the metropolitan divisions had over-the-year jobless rate decreases in February, while
five had increases and two had no change. Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Wash., had the largest rate decline
from a year earlier (-2.1 percentage points). Six other divisions had rate decreases of 1.0 percentage
point or more. Chicago-Joliet-Naperville, Ill., and Gary, Ind., had the largest unemployment rate
increases from a year earlier (+1.2 and +1.1 percentage points, respectively).
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In February, 303 metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 58
had decreases, and 11 had no change. The largest over-the-year employment increases occurred in Los
Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, Calif. (+124,600), Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown, Texas (+118,700),
New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, N.Y.-N.J.-Pa. (+110,000), and Dallas-Fort WorthArlington, Texas (+108,900). The largest over-the-year percentage gains in employment were in
Midland, Texas, and Odessa, Texas (+8.1 percent each), followed by Santa Cruz-Watsonville, Calif.
(+6.4 percent), and Napa, Calif. (+6.0 percent). (See table 3.)
The largest over-the-year decrease in employment occurred in Shreveport-Bossier City, La. (-3,100),
followed by Charlottesville, Va. (-2,800), and Atlantic City-Hammonton, N.J. (-2,700). The largest
over-the-year percentage decrease in employment occurred in Decatur, Ill. (-4.4 percent), followed by
Charlottesville, Va. (-2.8 percent), and Pine Bluff, Ark. (-2.2 percent).
Over the year, nonfarm employment rose in all 37 metropolitan areas with annual average employment
levels above 750,000 in 2012. The largest over-the-year percentage increase in employment in these
large metropolitan areas was in Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown, Texas (+4.5 percent), followed by
Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas (+4.0 percent), and Nashville-Davidson—Murfreesboro—
Franklin, Tenn. (+3.9 percent).
Metropolitan Division Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Nonfarm payroll employment data were available in February 2013 for 32 metropolitan divisions, which
are essentially separately identifiable employment centers within a metropolitan area. Thirty-one of the
32 metropolitan divisions had over-the-year employment gains and 1 had a loss. The largest over-theyear increases in employment within the metropolitan divisions occurred in Los Angeles-Long BeachGlendale, Calif. (+89,400), Dallas-Plano-Irving, Texas (+72,200), and New York-White Plains-Wayne,
N.Y.-N.J. (+66,500). The only over-the-year decrease in employment within the metropolitan divisions
was in Lake County-Kenosha County, Ill.-Wis. (-2,600). (See table 4.)
The largest over-the-year percentage increase in employment among the metropolitan divisions was in
Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas (+4.2 percent), followed by San Francisco-San Mateo-Redwood City,
Calif. (+3.6 percent), and Dallas-Plano-Irving, Texas (+3.5 percent). The only over-the-year percentage
decrease in employment occurred in Lake County-Kenosha County, Ill.-Wis. (-0.7 percent).

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 Orleans-Metairie-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 balance-of-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 2012 version
of the North American Industry Classification System.
Method of estimation.
CES State and Area
employment data are produced using several estimation
procedures. Where possible these data are produced using a
"weighted link relative" estimation technique in which a ratio
of current-month weighted employment to that of the
previous-month weighted employment is computed from a
sample of establishments reporting for both months. The
estimates of employment for the current month are then
obtained by multiplying these ratios by the previous month’s
employment estimates. The weighted link relative technique is
utilized for data series where the sample size meets certain
statistical criteria.
For some employment series, relatively small sample
sizes limit the reliability of the weighted link-relative
estimates. In these cases, BLS uses the CES small domain
model (SDM) to generate employment estimates. The SDM
combines the direct sample estimates (described above) and
forecasts of historical (benchmarked) data to decrease the
volatility of the estimates. With the January 2013 estimates
published on March 18, 2013, BLS will refine the SDM
methodology to incorporate more real-time information in the
model. For more detailed information about the CES small
domain model, refer to the BLS Handbook of Methods.
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.
Seasonal adjustment. Payroll employment data are
seasonally adjusted at the statewide supersector level. In some
states, the seasonally adjusted payroll employment total is
computed by aggregating the independently adjusted
supersector series. In other states, the seasonally adjusted
payroll employment total is independently adjusted. Revisions
of historical data for the most recent 5 years are made once a
year, coincident with annual benchmark adjustments.
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 specific 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. Model-
based 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 total nonfarm and supersector levels are
available online at www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. BLS uses
a 90-percent confidence level in determining whether changes
in CES employment levels are statistically significant.
Information on recent benchmark revisions for states is
available online 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 website at www.bls.gov/sae/.

reasons. Data for 2012 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 2012 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 Area boundaries do not reflect official OMB definitions.
p Preliminary
NOTE: Data are counts of jobs by place of work. Estimates subsequent to the current benchmark are preliminary and will be revised when new information becomes available.
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.

NOTE: Data are counts of jobs by place of work. Estimates subsequent to the current benchmark are preliminary and will be revised when new information becomes available. 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. 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.
