Employment by County, Metro and Other Areas
BEA produces job counts for local areas, with breakdowns by industry.
The employment estimates include data for: counties, metropolitan statistical areas, micropolitan statistical areas, combined statistical areas, and metropolitan divisions. Data is also presented for each state's metropolitan portion (the counties that belong to MSAs) and nonmetropolitan portion (the remaining counties).
These statistics are based primarily on data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Internal Revenue Service; BEA uses additional source data and adjustments to produce employment statistics that align with other BEA' statistics.
