March 2017 Unemployment Rate

About March 2017 Unemployment Rate ....

This interactive map shows the 160 communities where Local Area Unemployment Statistics are generated. All 62 counties in New York have an unemployment rate calculated monthly, along with the 98 cities, towns, and villages with a population greater then 25,000. Monthly numbers are not seasonally adjusted, and in some regions of the state unemployment rises during certain periods of the year. You should only compare like months (e.g. March 2017 vs March 2016). You can download the data going back to 1970s here: https://www.labor.ny.gov/stats/LSLAUS
