LAUS – Peak Year of Employment by County

LAUS - Peak Year of Employment by County

Yesterday, I posted this map of QCEW that shows the year of peak employment by county, going back to 1975. A different survey is the LAUS, which only goes back to 1990 and has a somewhat different result, in part because it only goes back 30 years versus 45 years.
  • Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS)- Estimation based on a survey of households, CES, and Unemployment Insurance claims
  • Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) - Census of all employers liable for Unemployment Insurance (97-99% of total non-agricultural employment)

Meet Todd, A Total Chump Who Did The Responsible Thing And Worked His Way Through College | Babylon Bee

BALTIMORE, MD — Local PC Technician Todd Manfroy was singled out as a chump by his local community Wednesday after it was discovered he worked his way through college to avoid taking on student loan debt. As a result, the 32-year-old fool was unable to take advantage of President Biden's recent student loan forgiveness plan.

According to sources, Manfroy worked full-time as a telemarketer while taking night classes at the University of Baltimore where he studied Computer Science.
