METROPOLITAN AREA EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT — APRIL 2020 Unemployment rates were higher in April than a year earlier in all 389 metropolitan areas, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. A total of 52 areas had jobless rates of less than 10.0 percent and 12 areas had rates of at least 25.0 percent. Nonfarm payroll employment decreased over the year in 377 metropolitan areas and was essentially unchanged in 12 areas. The national unemployment rate in April was 14.4 percent, not seasonally adjusted, up from 3.3 percent a year earlier. This news release presents statistics from two monthly programs. The civilian labor force and unemployment data are based on the same concepts and definitions as those used for the national household survey estimates. These data pertain to individuals by where they reside. The employment data are from an establishment survey that measures nonfarm employment, hours, and earnings by industry. These data pertain to jobs on payrolls defined by where the establishments are located. For more information about the concepts and statistical methodologies used by these two programs, see the Technical Note. Metropolitan Area Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) Kahului-Wailuku-Lahaina, HI, had the highest unemployment rate in April, 35.0 percent, followed by Kokomo, IN, 34.1 percent. Logan, UT-ID, had the lowest unemployment rate, 6.2 percent. The next lowest rates were in Columbia, MO, and Jefferson City, MO, 6.5 percent each. A total of 215 areas had April jobless rates below the U.S. rate of 14.4 percent, 172 areas had rates above it, and 2 areas had rates equal to that of the nation. (See table 1 and map 1.) The largest over-the-year unemployment rate increases occurred in Kahului-Wailuku-Lahaina, HI (+32.5 percentage points), Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, NV (+29.5 points), and Atlantic City-Hammonton, NJ (+29.1 points). Rates rose over the year by at least 20.0 percentage points in an additional 10 areas. The smallest rate increases from a year earlier occurred in Logan, UT-ID, and New Haven, CT (+4.0 percentage points each). Of the 51 metropolitan areas with a 2010 Census population of 1 million or more, Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, NV, had the highest unemployment rate in April, 33.5 percent. The next highest rates were in Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI, 24.4 percent, and Cleveland-Elyria, OH, 23.1 percent. Hartford-West Hartford-East Hartford, CT, and Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI, had the

lowest jobless rates among the large areas, 7.5 percent and 9.2 percent, respectively. All 51 large areas had over-the-year unemployment rate increases. The largest jobless rate increases were in Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, NV (+29.5 percentage points); Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI (+20.7 points); and Cleveland-Elyria, OH (+19.5 points). The smallest rate increases occurred in Hartford-West Hartford-East Hartford, CT, and Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI (+4.1 percentage points and +6.5 points, respectively). Metropolitan Division Unemployment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) Eleven of the most populous metropolitan areas are made up of 38 metropolitan divisions, which are essentially separately identifiable employment centers. In April, Detroit-Dearborn-Livonia, MI, had the highest unemployment rate among the divisions, 25.9 percent, followed by Warren-Troy-Farmington Hills, MI, 23.6 percent, and Lawrence-Methuen Town-Salem, MA-NH, 21.7 percent. Silver Spring-Frederick-Rockville, MD, had the lowest division rate, 8.8 percent, followed by Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, 10.1 percent. (See table 2.) In April, all 38 metropolitan divisions had over-the-year unemployment rate increases. Detroit-Dearborn-Livonia, MI, had the largest rate increase (+21.6 percentage points), followed by Warren-Troy-Farmington Hills, MI, and Lawrence-Methuen Town-Salem, MA-NH (+20.3 points and +18.0 points, respectively). The smallest rate increases occurred in Silver Spring-Frederick-Rockville, MD (+6.2 percentage points), and Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV (+7.3 points). Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) In April, 377 metropolitan areas had over-the-year decreases in nonfarm payroll employment and 12 were essentially unchanged. The largest over-the-year employment decreases occurred in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA (-1,949,600), Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA (-916,200), and Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN-WI (-610,900). The largest over-the-year percentage losses in employment occurred in Atlantic City-Hammonton, NJ (-32.9 percent), Norwich-New London-Westerly, CT-RI (-27.4 percent), and Barnstable Town, MA (-25.0 percent). (See table 3 and map 2.) Over the year, nonfarm employment declined in all of the 51 metropolitan areas with a 2010 Census population of 1 million or more. The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in employment in these large metropolitan areas occurred in Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI (-24.5 percent), Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, NV (-20.7 percent), and Buffalo-Cheektowaga-Niagara Falls, NY (-20.3 percent). Metropolitan Division Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)

In April, nonfarm payroll employment decreased in all of the 38 metropolitan divisions over the year. The largest over-the-year decrease in employment among the metropolitan divisions occurred in New York-Jersey City-White Plains, NY-NJ (-1,405,200), followed by Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale, CA (-659,700), and Chicago-Naperville-Arlington Heights, IL (-483,200). (See table 4.) The largest over-the-year percentage decreases in employment occurred in Warren-Troy-Farmington Hills, MI (-25.9 percent), Detroit-Dearborn-Livonia, MI (-22.2 percent), and Nassau County-Suffolk County, NY (-21.7 percent).

_____________ The State Employment and Unemployment news release for May is scheduled to be released on Friday, June 19, 2020, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). The Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment news release for May is scheduled to be released on Wednesday, July 1, 2020, at 10:00 a.m. (EDT).

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic Impact on April 2020

Establishment and Household Survey Data BLS has continued to review all estimation and methodological procedures for the establishment survey, which included the review of data, estimation processes, the application of the birth-death model, and seasonal adjustment. Business births and deaths cannot be adequately captured by the establishment survey as they occur. Therefore, the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program uses a model to account for the relatively stable net employment change generated by business births and deaths. Due to the impact of COVID-19, the relationship between business births and deaths is no longer stable. For the March 2020 final estimates updated with this news release, CES modified the birth-death model. Typically, reports with zero employment are not included in estimation. For the March final estimates, CES included a portion of these reports in the estimates. For the April 2020 preliminary estimates, in addition to the inclusion of reported zeros, the establishment survey made modifications to the birth-death model. For more information, see www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cesbd.htm . In the establishment survey, workers who are paid by their employer for all or any part of the pay period including the 12th of the month are counted as employed, even if they were not actually at their jobs. Workers who are temporarily or permanently absent from their jobs and are not being paid are not counted as employed, even if they are continuing to receive benefits. The length of the reference period does vary across the respondents in the establishment survey; one-third of businesses have a weekly pay period, slightly over 40 percent a bi-weekly, about 20 percent semi-monthly, and a small amount monthly. For the April 2020 estimates of household employment and unemployment from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program, BLS implemented level-shift outliers in the employment and/or unemployment inputs to the state models, based on statistical evaluation of movements in each area’s inputs. Both the household survey inputs, which serve as the primary inputs to the LAUS state models, and the nonfarm payroll employment and unemployment insurance claims covariates were examined for outliers. The resulting implementation of level shifts preserved movements in published estimates that the models otherwise would have discounted, without requiring changes to how the models create estimates at other points in the time series. Outlier detection and implementation of level shifts are usual aspects of the LAUS modeling procedures. However, until March 2020 these activities generally had been limited to annual processing, following the completion of estimation for the full calendar year. Furthermore, prior to April 2020, outlier detection for model-based areas had been limited to the household survey inputs. The implementation of level shifts for the model covariates in the April 2020 processing cycle resulted in some unusually large monthly revisions to estimates for March 2020. The “Frequently asked questions” document at www.bls.gov/cps/employment-situation-covid19-faq-april-2020.pdf extensively discusses the impact of a misclassification in the household survey on the

national estimates for April 2020. This misclassification was widespread geographically, with BLS analysis indicating that all states were affected to at least some degree. However, according to usual practice, the data from the household survey are accepted as recorded. To maintain data integrity, no ad hoc actions are taken to reclassify survey responses. Hence, the household survey estimates of employed and unemployed people that serve as the primary inputs to the state models were affected to varying degrees by the misclassification, which in turn affected the official LAUS estimates for April. To a lesser degree, a similar misclassification had occurred in the household survey for March, as documented at www.bls.gov/cps/employment-situation-covid19-faq-march-2020.pdf . Household data for substate areas are controlled to the employment and unemployment totals for their respective model-based areas. Hence, the preliminary April and revised March 2020 estimates for substate areas reflect the enhanced use of level-shift outliers, where implemented, in the inputs for their model-based control areas. The substate area estimates for both months also were impacted by misclassification in the household survey, in proportion to the impacts of the misclassifications on the data for their model-based control areas. Due to the effects of the pandemic and efforts to contain the virus, Puerto Rico was not able to conduct normal data collection for its household survey in March or April 2020; therefore, its data were not published. Household data for Puerto Rico are not modeled, but rather are derived from a monthly household survey similar to the Current Population Survey. In the absence of total controls for March and April, data for substate areas in Puerto Rico could not be produced.

Technical Note This news release presents civilian labor force and

unemployment data from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program (tables 1 and 2) for 389 metropolitan statistical areas and metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), plus 7 areas in Puerto Rico. Estimates for 38 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 the same areas. State estimates were previously published in the news release State Employment and Unemployment, and are republished in this news release for ease of reference. The LAUS and CES programs are both federal-state cooperative endeavors.

Civilian labor force and unemployment—from the LAUS program

Definitions. The civilian 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 employed persons and unemployed persons on a place-of-residence basis. The universe for each is the civilian noninstitutional population 16 years of age and older. Employed persons are those who did any work at all for pay or profit in the reference week (typically 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 civilian labor force is the sum of employed and unemployed persons. The unemployment rate is the number of unemployed as a percent of the civilian 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 estimates are also produced for the following areas and their respective balances: the Chicago-Naperville-Arlington Heights, IL Metropolitan Division; Cleveland-Elyria, OH Metropolitan Statistical Area; Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI Metropolitan Statistical Area; Miami-Miami Beach-Kendall, FL Metropolitan Division; and Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, WA Metropolitan Division. 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 news release, estimates are prepared through indirect estimation procedures using a building-block approach. Estimates of employed persons, 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 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 model-based area totals. A detailed description of the estimation procedures is available from BLS upon request.

Annual revisions. Civilian labor force and unemployment data shown for the prior year reflect adjustments made at the beginning of each year, usually implemented with the issuance of January estimates. The adjusted model-based estimates typically reflect updated population data from the U.S. Census Bureau, any revisions in other input data sources, and model re-estimation. All substate estimates then are re-estimated using updated inputs and adjusted to add to the revised model-based totals. In early 2015, a new generation of time-series models was implemented, resulting in the replacement of data back to the series beginnings. At the same time, enhancements were made to the substate estimation methodology, and more timely inputs from the American Community Survey were incorporated.

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 2017 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, the sample of

establishments is very small or highly variable. In these cases,

Page 6: Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment - April 2020 · Metropolitan Area Nonfarm Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted) In April, 377 metropolitan areas had over-the-year decreases

a model-based approach is used in estimation. These models use the direct sample estimates (described above), combined with forecasts of historical (benchmarked) data to decrease volatility in estimation. Two different models (Fay-Herriot Model and Small Domain Model) are used depending on the industry level being estimated. For more detailed information about each 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. Revisions to historical data for the most recent 5 years are made once a year, coincident with annual benchmark adjustments.

Payroll employment data are seasonally adjusted concurrently, using all available estimates, including those for the current month, to develop sample-based seasonal factors. Concurrent sample-based factors are created every month for the current month's preliminary estimate as well as the previous month's final estimate in order to incorporate real-time estimates.

Reliability of the estimates

The estimates presented in this news 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. Use of error measures

Civilian 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 news release. Information on recent data revisions for states and local areas is available online at www.bls.gov/lau/launews1.htm.

Employment estimates. Changes in metropolitan area nonfarm payroll employment are cited in the analysis of this news release only if they have been determined to be statistically significant at the 90-percent confidence level. Measures of sampling error for the total nonfarm employment series are available for metropolitan areas and metropolitan divisions at www.bls.gov/web/laus/790stderr.htm. Measures of sampling error for more detailed series at the area and division level are available upon request. Measures of sampling error for states at the supersector level and for the private service-providing, goods-producing, total private and total nonfarm levels are available on the BLS website at www.bls.gov/web/laus/790stderr.htm. Information on recent benchmark revisions is available online at www.bls.gov/web/laus/benchmark.pdf.

Area definitions

The substate area data published in this news release reflect the delineations issued by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget on April 10, 2018. 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 online at www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm.

Additional information

Estimates of unadjusted and seasonally adjusted civilian labor force and unemployment data for states and seven substate areas are available in the news release State Employment and Unemployment. Estimates of civilian labor force and unemployment for all states, metropolitan 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 online at www.bls.gov/lau/. Employment data from the CES program are available on the BLS website at www.bls.gov/sae/.

NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Area delineations are based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 18-03, dated April 10, 2018, and are available on the BLS website at https://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 containing the first principal city. Metropolitan divisions are listed under their metropolitan areas. Some divisions lie in more than one state, and some, like Camden, NJ, are totally outside the states under which their metropolitan areas are listed. For Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, the metropolitan area and division titles are identical. Estimates for the latest month are subject to revision the following month.
