Who said there wasn't?!?

Alas I knew there would be no answer to my question. Guess it isn't "fairly evident"

Yet Pu does the exact inverse of that and you don't see why?

Attracting new companies and jobs is awesome for the CSRA, but meaningless in the grand scheme of things if you can't sustain the ones you've got in order to maintain an overall positive trend.
I get what he is saying. What I'm saying is that in the grand scheme of things, there was overall growth, despite what jobs were lost. It's not like the area has less jobs now than it did in February of last year. If that were the case, that would be a problem and mean the area was stagnant.

Now you spin this...

Table 3. Employees on nonfarm payrolls by state and metropolitan area

Number 2.... get it... 2 not one........

Augusta is really doing good if that's all you have to offer. The BLS included 2013 and they probably don't include Gainesville among the MSA's, because it's apart of the Atlanta CSA. From December 2013 to December 2014 Gainesville was at 3.4% compared to 3.3% in Augusta.

I just noticed something about this information. It has old MSA designations. At least for Greenville. Anderson is in the Greenville MSA now. So that means they have 386 give or take. Interesting information though.
