Ok, but explain why Metro Detroit was the second highest only behind LV not too long ago. And why in this rankings, Texas cities are all of a sudden climbing down. Unemployment doesn’t equal jobless and I’m surprised people still confuse the two
With the economy in flux as the nation emerges from the Covid induced slowdown, these employment numbers are likely moving around a great deal from one month to the next. It would be interesting to see a rolling average for 6 to 12 months. This would reveal which metro areas are truly demonstrating a sustained pattern of much stronger job markets than others. The February numbers showing Pittsburgh with double the unemployment rate of Detroit (yes, I'm aware the data is for metro areas not just cities), for instance, looks anomalous.
