Who's Unemployed?
You may be surprised by the answer. Read John Sumser's article in the Electronic Recruiting News.
From the Bureau
In January, 276
metropolitan areas recorded higher unemployment rates than a year earlier, 42 areas had lower rates, and 4 areas had rates that were unchanged. Fifteen metropolitan areas had jobless rates of at least 10.0 percent, nine of which were located in California and three along the Mexican border in other States. Twelve areas posted rates below 3.0 percent, with six of these in the South and five in the Midwest. (Data for the nine metropolitan areas in Michigan were not available at the time of release.)
