REGIONAL AND STATE EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — OCTOBER 2011

Regional and state unemployment rates were generally little changed or slightly lower in October. Thirty-six states and the District of Columbia recorded unemployment rate decreases, five states posted

rate increases, and nine states had no rate change, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.Forty states registered unemployment rate decreases from a year earlier, eight states and the District of Columbia had increases, and two states experienced no change. The national jobless rate was little

changed at 9.0 percent, but was 0.7 percentage point lower than a year earlier.

In October, nonfarm payroll employment increased in 39 states and the District of Columbia, and

decreased in 11 states. The largest over-the-month increases in employment occurred in Illinois

(+30,000) and California (+25,700). The largest over-the-month decrease in employment occurred in

Wisconsin (-9,700), followed by New York (-8,300) and Minnesota (-6,100). Delaware experienced thelargest over-the-month percentage increase in employment (+1.0 percent), followed by North Dakota

(+0.7 percent) and Oklahoma (+0.6 percent). Wisconsin experienced the largest over-the-month

percentage decline in employment (-0.4 percent), followed by Maine, Rhode Island, and Wyoming(-0.3 percent each). Over the year, nonfarm employment increased in 45 states and the District of

Columbia, and decreased in 5 states. The largest over-the-year percentage increase occurred in North

Dakota (+4.9 percent), followed by Oklahoma (+3.1 percent) and Utah (+2.6 percent). The largest over-

the-year percentage decreases in employment occurred in Georgia (-0.9 percent) and Indiana(-0.4 percent).

Regional Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)

The West continued to record the highest regional unemployment rate in October, 10.3 percent, while

significant rate decreases, the largest of which was in the Mountain (-0.9 percentage point). No division

had a statistically significant unemployment rate increase from October 2010.

State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted)

Nevada continued to record the highest unemployment rate among the states, 13.4 percent in October.

California posted the next highest rate, 11.7 percent. North Dakota registered the lowest jobless rate,

3.5 percent, followed by Nebraska, 4.2 percent. In total, 26 states reported jobless rates significantly

lower than the U.S. figure of 9.0 percent, 10 states and the District of Columbia had measurably higherrates, and 14 states had rates that were not appreciably different from that of the nation. (See tables A

and 3 and chart 1.)

Twelve states experienced statistically significant over-the-month unemployment rate declines in

October. The largest of these were in Alabama, Michigan, and Minnesota (-0.5 percentage point each),

followed by South Carolina and Utah (-0.4 point each). Thirty-eight states and the District of Columbiarecorded 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. (See table B.)

New Mexico registered the largest jobless rate decrease from October 2010 (-2.0 percentage points).

Four additional states reported smaller but also statistically significant decreases over the year: Florida(-1.5 percentage points), Oregon (-1.1 points), Massachusetts (-1.0 point), and California (-0.8 point).The District of Columbia posted the only significant rate increase from a year earlier (+1.3 percentage

points). Forty-five states recorded unemployment rates that were not appreciably different from those of

a year earlier.

Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted)

In October, 14 states recorded statistically significant changes in employment, 13 of which wereincreases. The largest over-the-month statistically significant job gains occurred in Illinois (+30,000),

California (+25,700), Virginia (+14,000), and Pennsylvania (+13,800). The only state with an

over-the-month statistically significant decline in employment was Wisconsin (-9,700). (See tables Cand 5.)

Over the year, 23 states experienced statistically significant changes in employment, 22 of which wereincreases. The largest increase occurred in California (+239,100), followed by Texas (+231,600) and

Florida (+93,900). The only state with an over-the-year statistically significant decrease in employment

was Georgia (-33,300). (See table D and chart 2.)

Technical Note

This release presents labor force and unemployment

data for census regions and divisions, states, and selectedsubstate 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) pro-

gram (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 periodending 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-LongBeach-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

balances of state are based on a similar regression approach

that does not incorporate CES or UI data. Estimates forcensus regions are obtained by summing the model-based

estimates for the component divisions and then calculating

the unemployment rate. Each month, census division esti-

mates 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 proceduresis 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 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

incorporated 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 fluctuationsfrom the seasonally adjusted series, leaving the trend. The

same process is used on both historical and current year

estimates. For more information about the smoothing tech-

nique, 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 availableon 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



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 insufficientsample 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 super-

sector series. In other states, the seasonally adjusted payrollemployment 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 largersampling 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-of-

states" 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

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-the-

month changes. The introductory section of this releasepreserves 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. Model-

based error measures for seasonally adjusted and not

seasonally adjusted data and for over-the-month and over-the-year 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 for statistical

significance 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 rate for significance is about 0.9 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 areavailable 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 proceduresused 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 380 metropolitan areas and metropolitan

New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs) are available
