REGIONAL AND STATE EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT – JULY 2010
Regional and state unemployment rates were little changed in July. Eighteen states and the District of
Columbia recorded unemployment rate decreases, 14 states registered rate increases, and 18 states had
no change, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Twenty-seven states and the District of
Columbia reported unemployment rate decreases from a year earlier, 20 states posted increases, and 3
states had no change. The national jobless rate was unchanged in July at 9.5 percent and little different
from a year earlier (9.4 percent).
In July, nonfarm payroll employment increased in 37 states and the District of Columbia and decreased
in 13 states. The largest over-the-month increases in employment occurred in Michigan (+27,800), the
District of Columbia (+17,800), Massachusetts (+13,200), New York (+10,500), and Minnesota
(+9,800). The District of Columbia recorded the largest over-the-month percentage increase in employment (+2.5 percent), followed by Hawaii and Maine (+0.9 percent each), Michigan (+0.7 percent), and
Oklahoma (+0.5 percent). The largest over-the-month employment decreases were in North Carolina
(-29,800), New Jersey (-21,200), Illinois (-20,200), California (-9,400), and Kentucky (-8,000). The
largest over-the-month percentage decreases in employment occurred in New Hampshire and North
Carolina (-0.8 percent each), Mississippi and New Jersey (-0.5 percent each), and Illinois and Kentucky
(-0.4 percent each). Over the year, nonfarm payroll employment increased in 30 states and the District of
Columbia, decreased in 19 states, and was unchanged in 1 state. The largest over-the-year percentage
increase in employment was reported in the District of Columbia (+3.0 percent), followed by Alaska
(+1.9 percent), Indiana and North Dakota (+1.7 percent each), New Hampshire (+1.4 percent), and
Texas (+1.3 percent). The largest over-the-year percentage decrease in employment occurred in Nevada
(-1.8 percent), followed by Mississippi and New Mexico (-1.3 percent each), Rhode Island (-1.2 percent), Colorado (-1.1 percent), and Georgia (-1.0 percent).
Regional Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
The West reported the highest regional unemployment rate in July, 10.8 percent, while the Northeast
recorded the lowest rate, 8.8 percent. No region experienced a statistically significant over-the-month
unemployment rate change. The Midwest was the only region to register a significant rate change from a
year earlier (-0.6 percentage point). (See table 1.)
Among the nine geographic divisions, the Pacific continued to report the highest jobless rate, 11.5 percent in July. The West North Central registered the lowest rate, 7.0 percent, followed by the West South
Central, at 7.9 percent. The East South Central was the only division to experience a statistically significant unemployment rate change from a month earlier (-0.4 percentage point), and the West North
Central was the only division to post a significant over-the-year jobless rate change (-0.6 point).
State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)
Nevada again reported the highest unemployment rate among the states, 14.3 percent in July. The rate in
Nevada also set a new series high. (All region, division, and state series begin in 1976.) The states with
the next highest rates were Michigan, 13.1 percent, and California, 12.3 percent. North Dakota continued to register the lowest jobless rate, 3.6 percent, followed by South Dakota and Nebraska, 4.4 and
4.7 percent, respectively. In total, 25 states posted jobless rates significantly lower than the U.S. figure
of 9.5 percent, 7 states had measurably higher rates, and 18 states and the District of Columbia had rates
that were not appreciably different from that of the nation. (See tables A and 3 and chart 1.)
In July, four states recorded statistically significant unemployment rate decreases from June, the largest
of which was in Alabama (-0.6 percentage point). Nebraska, North Carolina, and Tennessee also posted
measurable rate decreases (-0.2 percentage point each). The remaining 46 states and the District of
Columbia registered jobless rates that were not measurably different from those of a month earlier,
though some had changes that were at least as large numerically as the significant changes.
Nevada recorded the largest jobless rate increase from July 2009 (+2.0 percentage points). Three additional states had smaller, but also statistically significant, increases: Montana and Pennsylvania (+1.0
percentage point each) and Florida (+0.7 point). Eight states reported significant over-the-year rate
decreases in July, the largest of which was in Minnesota (-1.5 percentage points). The remaining 38
states and the District of Columbia registered unemployment rates that were not appreciably different
from those of a year earlier. (See table B.)
Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)
Between June and July 2010, 13 states and the District of Columbia recorded statistically significant
changes in employment. The largest over-the-month statistically significant job gains occurred in
Michigan (+27,800), the District of Columbia (+17,800), and Massachusetts (+13,200). The largest
over-the-month statistically significant job losses occurred in North Carolina (-29,800), New Jersey
(-21,200), and Illinois (-20,200). (See tables C and 5.)
Over the year, five states and the District of Columbia reported statistically significant employment increases, while four states experienced statistically significant declines in employment. The largest statistically significant over-the-year employment increases were posted in Texas (+134,600), Indiana
(+47,600), Massachusetts (+36,600), and the District of Columbia (+21,300). Two states recorded
statistically significant over-the-year increases in employment that were less than 15,000: New Hampshire (+8,700) and North Dakota (+6,200). The four statistically significant job losses occurred in California (-103,900), New York (-51,400), Georgia (-39,100), and New Jersey (-34,000). (See table D.)
The Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment news release for July is scheduled to be
released on Wednesday, September 1, 2010, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment news release for August is scheduled to be released on Tuesday,
September 21, 2010, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT).

Technical Note
This release presents labor force and unemployment
data for census regions and divisions, states, and selected
substate areas from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics
(LAUS) program (tables 1 to 4). Also presented are nonfarm
payroll employment estimates by state and major industry
sector from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program (tables 5 and 6). 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 48 of the 50
states, the District of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long
Beach-Glendale metropolitan division, New York City, and
the balances of California and New York State are produced
using estimating equations based on regression techniques.
This method, which underwent substantial enhancement at
the beginning of 2005, utilizes data from several sources,
including the CPS, the CES, and state unemployment
insurance (UI) programs. Estimates for the state of California
are derived by summing the estimates for the Los AngelesLong Beach-Glendale metropolitan division and the balance
of California. Similarly, estimates for New York State are
derived by summing the estimates for New York City and the
balance of New York State. Estimates for all nine census
divisions and the five additional substate areas contained in
this release (the Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor and DetroitWarren-Livonia metropolitan areas and the Chicago-JolietNaperville, Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, and SeattleBellevue-Everett metropolitan divisions) and their respective
balances of state are based on a similar regression approach
that does not incorporate CES or UI data. Estimates for
census regions are obtained by summing the model-based
estimates for the component divisions and then calculating
the unemployment rate. Each month, census division estimates are controlled to national totals; state estimates are then
controlled to their respective division totals. Substate and
balance-of-state estimates for the five areas noted above are
controlled to their respective state totals. Estimates for
Puerto Rico are derived from a monthly household survey
similar to the CPS. A detailed description of the estimation
procedures is available from BLS upon request.
Annual revisions. Labor force and unemployment data
for prior years reflect adjustments made at the end of each
year. The adjusted estimates reflect updated population data
from the U.S. Census Bureau, any revisions in the other data
sources, and model reestimation. In most years, historical
data for the most recent five years (both seasonally adjusted
and not seasonally adjusted) are revised near the beginning of
each calendar year, prior to or coincident with the release of
January estimates.
Seasonal adjustment. The LAUS program introduced
smoothed-seasonally-adjusted (SSA) estimates in January
2010. These are seasonally-adjusted data that have incurporated a long-run trend smoothing procedure, resulting in
estimates that are less volatile than those previously produced. The estimates are smoothed using a Henderson Trend
Filter (H13). The H13 uses a filtering procedure, based on
moving averages, to remove the irregular fluctuations from
the seasonally-adjusted series, leaving the trend. The same
process is used on both historical and current year estimates.
Seasonally-adjusted labor force estimates from January
1976 through December 2009 were replaced with the SSA
estimates for all four census regions, nine census divisions,
all States, the District of Columbia, New York City, the Los
Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale metropolitan division, and the
respective balances of New York and California. Seasonallyadjusted estimates for the Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor and
Detroit-Warren-Livonia metropolitan areas and the ChicagoJoliet-Naperville, Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, and SeattleBellevue-Everett metropolitan divisions and the respective
balances of Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Florida, and
Washington were also replaced from January 1983 through
December 2009. For more information about the smoothing
technique and the reasons behind the change, see the BLS
Web site at www.bls.gov/lau/lassaqa.htm.
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. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is available
on the Internet at www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm.
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.
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.
Caution on aggregating state data. State estimation
procedures are designed to produce accurate data for each
individual state. BLS independently develops a national
employment series; state estimates are not forced to sum to
national totals. Because each state series is subject to larger
sampling and nonsampling errors than the national series,
summing them cumulates individual state level errors and can
cause significant distortions at an aggregate level. Due to
these statistical limitations, BLS does not compile a “sum-ofstates” employment series, and cautions users that such a
series is subject to a relatively large and volatile error
structure.
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.
Use of error measures. In 2005, the LAUS program
introduced several improvements to its methodology. Among
these were the development of model-based error measures
for the monthly estimates and the estimates of over-themonth changes. The introductory section of this release
preserves the long-time practice of highlighting the direction
of the movements in regional and state unemployment rates
and state nonfarm payroll employment regardless of their
statistical significance. The remainder of the analysis in the
release takes statistical significance into consideration.
Labor force and unemployment estimates. Modelbased error measures for both seasonally adjusted and not
seasonally adjusted data and for over-the-month changes are
available online at www.bls.gov/lau/lastderr.htm. BLS uses a
90-percent confidence level in determining whether changes
in LAUS unemployment rates are statistically significant.
The average magnitude of the current year over-the-month
change in a state unemployment rate that is required in order
to be statistically significant at the 90-percent confidence
level is just over 0.2 percentage point. The average amount
of the current over-the-year change in a state unemployment
rate to be considered statistically significant is between 0.8
and 0.9 percentage point. More details can be found on the
Web site. 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 level
and for metropolitan area CES data at the total nonfarm level
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 on the Internet at www.bls.gov/sae/.
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 labor force and unemployment from the
LAUS program, as well as nonfarm employment from the
CES program, for over 300 metropolitan areas and
metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs)
are available in the news release, Metropolitan Area
Employment and Unemployment. Estimates of labor force,
employment, 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 Internet at
www.bls.gov/sae/.

1 Includes mining and logging, information, and other services (except public
administration), not shown separately.
2 This series is not published seasonally adjusted because the seasonal
component, which is small relative to the trend-cycle and irregular components, cannot
be separated with sufficient precision.
3 Mining and logging is combined with construction.
p = preliminary.
NOTE: Data are counts of jobs by place of work. Estimates are currently estimated
from 2009 benchmark levels. Estimates subsequent to the current benchmarks are
provisional and will be revised when new information becomes available.
