State and Metro Trends

State and Metro Trends

Monthly analysis of changes in the labor force and employment by industry for the State and Metropolitan Statistical Areas, amounts for the current month, prior month, and year ago presented with numeric and percent change. Publication contains graphs and other economic information.

NOTE: Effective January 2025, the counties included in two Metropolitan Statistical Areas have changed. Jackson MSA now includes Holmes and Scott counties. Gulfport-Biloxi-Pascagoula MSA now includes Stone County, and the name has changed to Gulfport-Biloxi MSA. The MSA data has been updated to reflect these changes. The changes are due to the Bureau of Labor Statistics updating the areas to reflect delineations based on the 2020 Census, as published in OMB Bulletin No. 23-01.
