METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — DECEMBER 2013
Unemployment rates were lower in December than a year earlier in 339 of the 372 metropolitan areas,
higher in 25 areas, and unchanged in 8 areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.
Twenty-two areas had jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent and 78 areas had rates of less than 5.0
percent. Two hundred ninety-four metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll
employment, 67 had decreases, and 11 had no change. The national unemployment rate in December
was 6.5 percent, not seasonally adjusted, down from 7.6 percent a year earlier.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Yuma, Ariz., and El Centro, Calif., had the highest unemployment rates in December, 27.1 percent and
22.5 percent, respectively. Bismarck, N.D.; Logan, Utah-Idaho; and Midland, Texas, had the lowest
rates, 2.8 percent each. A total of 211 areas had December unemployment rates below the U.S. figure of
6.5 percent, 152 areas had rates above it, and 9 areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1
and the map.)
Atlantic City-Hammonton, N.J., had the largest over-the-year unemployment rate decrease in December
(-4.5 percentage points). Seventy-eight other areas had rate declines of at least 2.0 percentage points,
and an additional 102 areas had declines between 1.0 and 1.9 points. Danville, Ill., had the largest overthe-year jobless rate increase (+2.2 percentage points). No other area had an unemployment rate increase
greater than 1.0 percentage point.
Of the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, Providence-Fall
River-Warwick, R.I.-Mass., had the highest unemployment rate in December, 9.2 percent. MinneapolisSt. Paul-Bloomington, Minn.-Wis., had the lowest rate among the large areas, 4.3 percent. Forty-five of
the large areas had over-the-year unemployment rate decreases, three had increases, and one had no
change. The largest rate decline occurred in Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, N.C.-S.C. (-2.8 percentage
points). Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, Ohio, had the largest jobless rate increase over the year (+0.5
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 December, Lawrence-Methuen-Salem, Mass.N.H., had the highest jobless rate among the divisions, 10.3 percent. Bethesda-Rockville-Frederick, Md.,
had the lowest unemployment rate, 4.3 percent. (See table 2.)
Twenty-nine of the metropolitan divisions had over-the-year jobless rate decreases in December, while
four had increases and one had no change. Camden, N.J., had the largest rate decline from a year earlier
(-2.7 percentage points). Seventeen other divisions had rate decreases of 1.0 percentage point or more.
No division had an over-the-year unemployment rate increase larger than 0.1 percentage point.
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In December, 294 metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 67
had decreases, and 11 had no change. The largest over-the-year employment increases occurred in New
York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, N.Y.-N.J.-Pa. (+135,300), Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown,
Texas (+82,000), and Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, Calif. (+80,500). The largest over-the-year
percentage gain in employment occurred in Naples-Marco Island, Fla. (+7.7 percent), followed by
Sebastian-Vero Beach, Fla. (+6.5 percent), and Columbus, Ind. (+6.0 percent). (See table 3.)
The largest over-the-year decrease in employment occurred in Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, Ohio (-6,400),
followed by Poughkeepsie-Newburgh-Middletown, N.Y. (-5,200), and Scranton–Wilkes-Barre, Pa.
(-2,100). The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in employment occurred in Salisbury, Md.
(-3.1 percent), Palm Coast, Fla. (-3.0 percent), and Poughkeepsie-Newburgh-Middletown, N.Y. (-2.0
percent).
Over the year, nonfarm employment rose in 36 of the 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 occurred in San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif. (+3.4 percent),
followed by Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford, Fla. (+3.1 percent), and Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown,
Texas, and Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, Fla. (+3.0 percent each). The only large area that had an
over-the-year percentage decrease in employment was Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, Ohio (-0.6 percent).
Metropolitan Division Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Nonfarm payroll employment data were available in December 2013 for 32 metropolitan divisions,
which are essentially separately identifiable employment centers within a metropolitan area. Thirty of
the 32 metropolitan divisions had over-the-year employment gains and 2 had losses. The largest overthe-year increase in employment among the metropolitan divisions occurred in New York-White PlainsWayne, N.Y.-N.J. (+102,400), followed by Chicago-Joliet-Naperville, Ill. (+54,400), and Los AngelesLong Beach-Glendale, Calif. (+46,000). The only over-the-year decreases in employment occurred in

The largest over-the-year percentage increase in employment among the metropolitan divisions occurred
in Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, Wash. (+3.0 percent), followed by Fort Lauderdale-Pompano BeachDeerfield Beach, Fla., and Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas (+2.7 percent each). The only over-the-year
percentage decreases in employment occurred in Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Mich. (-0.5 percent), and

_____________
The Regional and State Unemployment 2013 Annual Averages news release is scheduled to be
released on Friday, February 28, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. (EST). The Regional and State Employment
and Unemployment news release for January 2014 is scheduled to be released on Monday, March
17, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). The Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment news
release for January 2014 is scheduled to be released on Friday, March 21, 2014, at 10:00 a.m.
(EDT).
Upcoming Changes to Current Employment Statistics Data
Effective with the release of January 2014 estimates on Monday, March 17th, all nonfarm
payroll employment estimates for states and areas presented in tables 3 and 4 of this news
release will be adjusted to 2013 benchmark levels. Seasonally adjusted series will be subject to
revision from 1990 forward. Not seasonally adjusted payroll data back to April 2012 will also
be subject to revision.
Upcoming Changes to Local Area Unemployment Statistics Data
Effective with the issuance of the Regional and State Unemployment 2013 Annual Averages
news release on Friday, February 28th, the civilian labor force data for census regions and
divisions and all states, the District of Columbia, and the seven modeled substate areas
presented in tables 1 and 2 of this news release will be revised from 2009 to 2013 to
incorporate updated inputs, new population controls, and reestimation of models. The new
population controls will reflect the annual updating of population estimates by the U.S. Census
Bureau. Labor force estimates for all other metropolitan areas and metropolitan divisions
subsequently will be revised to reflect updated inputs and adjustment to the new statewide
estimates. Data back to 2009 are subject to revision, and the revised estimates will be published
with the March 2014 Regional and State Employment and Unemployment news release on
Friday, April 18th.

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 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 currentmonth 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 refined 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 for states, metropolitan areas, and
metropolitan divisions at the total nonfarm level. For states,
data are seasonally adjusted at the supersector level as well. In
some metropolitan areas with metropolitan divisions, the
seasonally adjusted payroll employment totals are computed
by aggregating the independently adjusted total nonfarm
estimates for the component metropolitan divisions. 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. Measures
of sampling error are not available for metropolitan areas or
metropolitan divisions. Model-based error measures for states
are
available
on
the
BLS
website
at
www.bls.gov/lau/lastderr.htm. Measures of nonsampling
error are not available for the areas contained in this release.
Information on recent data revisions for states and local areas
is available online at www.bls.gov/lau/launews1.htm.
Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error are
not available for metropolitan areas or metropolitan divisions.
Measures of sampling error for states down to the supersector
level are available on the BLS website at
www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Measures of nonsampling
error are not available for the areas contained in this
release. Information on recent benchmark revisions is
available online at www.bls.gov/sae/benchmark2013.pdf.
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/.

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. Estimates for the latest month are subject to revision the
following month.

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.
