Written by Peter Wright
In second-quarter 2019, all nine regions of the U.S. had positive employment growth.
Second-quarter regional employment data by state was released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on Friday. The state data follows and confirms the strong employment situation that we reported at the national level two weeks ago. In the second quarter, the states reported a total of 607,000 jobs created. The national report indicated a total of 512,000 jobs.
