METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — MAY 2014
Unemployment rates were lower in May than a year earlier in 357 of the 372 metropolitan areas, higher
in 11 areas, and unchanged in 4 areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Twelve areas
had jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent and 93 areas had rates of less than 5.0 percent. Nonfarm payroll
employment increased over the year in 295 metropolitan areas, decreased in 68 areas, and was
unchanged in 9 areas. The national unemployment rate in May was 6.1 percent, not seasonally adjusted,
down from 7.3 percent a year earlier.
Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Yuma, Ariz., and El Centro, Calif., had the highest unemployment rates in May, 26.5 percent and 21.1
percent, respectively. Bismarck, N.D., had the lowest unemployment rate, 2.2 percent. A total of 204
areas had May unemployment rates below the U.S. figure of 6.1 percent, 156 areas had rates above it,
and 12 areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1 and the map.)
New Bedford, Mass., had the largest over-the-year unemployment rate decrease in May (-2.8 percentage
points). Thirty-seven other areas had rate declines of at least 2.0 percentage points, and an additional
201 areas had declines of at least 1.0 point. Florence-Muscle Shoals, Ala., had the largest over-the-year
jobless rate increase (+0.4 percentage point).
Of the 49 metropolitan areas with a Census 2000 population of 1 million or more, Detroit-WarrenLivonia, Mich.; Providence-Fall River-Warwick, R.I.-Mass.; and Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario,
Calif., had the highest unemployment rates in May, 8.0 percent each. Minneapolis-St. PaulBloomington, Minn.-Wis., had the lowest jobless rate among the large areas, 4.0 percent, followed by
Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas, 4.1 percent. Forty-eight of the large areas had over-the-year
unemployment rate decreases, while one had an increase. The largest unemployment rate decline
occurred in Las Vegas-Paradise, Nev. (-2.1 percentage points). Birmingham-Hoover, Ala., had the only
jobless rate increase (+0.1 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 May, Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Mich., had
the highest jobless rate among the divisions, 9.0 percent. Framingham, Mass., had the lowest division
rate, 4.1 percent. (See table 2.)
All 34 metropolitan divisions had over-the-year jobless rate decreases in May. Lawrence-MethuenSalem, Mass.-N.H., had the largest rate decline from a year earlier (-2.8 percentage points). Twenty-six
other divisions had rate decreases of 1.0 percentage point or more.
Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
In May, 295 metropolitan areas had over-the-year increases in nonfarm payroll employment, 68 had
decreases, and 9 had no change. The largest over-the-year employment increases occurred in Dallas-Fort
Worth-Arlington, Texas (+113,100), Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, Calif. (+111,900), and New
York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, N.Y.-N.J.-Pa. (+111,200). The largest over-the-year percentage
gain in employment occurred in Muncie, Ind. (+7.5 percent), followed by Ocean City, N.J. (+6.5
percent), and College Station-Bryan, Texas (+5.1 percent). (See table 3.)
The largest over-the-year decreases in employment occurred in Detroit-Warren-Livonia, Mich., and
Peoria, Ill. (-3,300 each), followed by Scranton—Wilkes-Barre, Pa. (-3,200), and Atlantic CityHammonton, N.J. (-3,000). The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in employment occurred in
Anniston-Oxford, Ala. (-3.2 percent), Bloomington-Normal, Ill. (-3.0 percent), and Warner Robins, Ga.
(-2.5 percent).
Over the year, nonfarm employment rose in 36 of the 38 metropolitan areas with annual average
employment levels above 750,000 in 2013. The largest over-the-year percentage increase in employment
in these large metropolitan areas occurred in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas (+3.7 percent),
followed by Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas (+3.6 percent), and Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford,
Fla., and San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif. (+3.4 percent each). The over-the-year percentage
decreases in employment occurred in Detroit-Warren-Livonia, Mich., and Virginia Beach-NorfolkNewport News, Va.-N.C. (-0.2 percent each).
Metropolitan Division Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
Nonfarm payroll employment data were available in May 2014 for 32 metropolitan divisions, which are
essentially separately identifiable employment centers within a metropolitan area. Twenty-nine of the 32
metropolitan divisions had over-the-year employment gains and 3 had losses. The largest over-the-year
increase in employment among the metropolitan divisions occurred in Los Angeles-Long BeachGlendale, Calif. (+89,300), followed by Dallas-Plano-Irving, Texas (+88,300), and New York-White

The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment news release for June is scheduled to be
released on Friday, July 18, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). The Metropolitan Area Employment and
Unemployment news release for June is scheduled to be released on Wednesday, July 30, 2014, at
10:00 a.m. (EDT).
Upcoming Changes to Current Employment Statistics (CES) Data
Effective with the release of July 2014 data on August 18, 2014, the CES survey will implement new
sample units into production on a quarterly basis, replacing the current practice of implementing new
sample units annually. There is no change to the CES survey sample design. More information about the
quarterly sample implementation is available at www.bls.gov/ces/cesqsi.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 labormanagement 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. 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.
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
available for metropolitan areas or metropolitan divisions upon
request. 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/.
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 deemed large enough to be subdivided
into metropolitan divisions, the seasonally adjusted payroll
employment totals are computed by aggregating the seasonally
adjusted total nonfarm estimates for each of the component
metropolitan divisions. Revisions of historical data for the most
recent 5 years are made once a year, coincident with annual
benchmark adjustments.
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.
Reliability of the estimates
Additional information
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.
More complete information on the technical procedures
used to develop these estimates and additional data appear in
Employment and Earnings Online.
Area definitions
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.

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.
