1 Metropolitan Statistical Areas Southern Lower Michigan Ann Arbor, Battle Creek, Jackson, Kalamazoo-Portage, and Niles-Benton Harbor Metropolitan Statistical Areas Counties: Allegan, Berrien, Branch, Calhoun, Cass, Hillsdale, Jackson, Kalamazoo, Lenawee, Livingston, St. Joseph, Van Buren, and Washtenaw August 2017 Labor Force Withdrawal Pushes Down August Jobless Rates in Southern Lower Michigan August unemployment rates fell modestly in most regional metro areas and counties. Monthly jobless rate reductions were related in some regions to fewer summer and seasonal jobseekers. August seasonally unadjusted unemployment rates declined in all five Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) of Southern Lower Michigan between three and six tenths of a percentage point (Figure 2). The jobless rate in the Ann Arbor metro area fell six tenths of a percentage point to 3.9 percent, as Ann Arbor s rate ranked second lowest among Michigan metro areas. The Ann Arbor jobless rate was lower than the statewide unadjusted rate of 4.6 percent, while the rate in the Kalamazoo metro matched the statewide rate (Figure 1). The Jackson and Battle Creek MSAs each registered monthly rate reductions of about half a percentage point in August. Similarly, all regional non-metro labor markets of Southern Lower Michigan recorded jobless rate cuts, ranging from -0.3 percentage points in Allegan to -0.8 in Lenawee County. Unemployment rates edged up or were flat over the past year in all regional metro and non-metro labor markets.

2 Number of Jobseekers Down in August but Up over the Year in All Regional Metro Areas Unemployment fell in August in all regional metropolitan statistical areas, as youth and other summer seasonal workers started to withdraw from the workforce: -300 each in Battle Creek, Jackson, and Niles-Benton Harbor; -600 in Kalamazoo, and -1,100 in Ann Arbor. Employment inched up slightly in most areas, resulting in minor changes in the labor force (Tables 1 and 2). Since August 2016, jobless rates were relatively stable in regional metro areas. Unemployment rates edged up by 0.3 percentage points over the year in the Kalamazoo and Battle Creek MSAs, and were unchanged in Ann Arbor and Jackson. Jobless rates remain low by historical standards throughout the region (Tables 1 and 2). Labor Force Mostly Down in August and over the Year in Regional Non-metro Counties In August, labor force levels in most regional non-metro counties inched down or were flat, with the exception of St. Joseph County (+525). Workforce reductions ranged from -100 in Branch to -325 in Allegan County, mostly due to fewer jobseekers in the market (Table 3). Since August 2016, all six non-metro labor markets of Southern Lower Michigan continued to record labor force reductions, extending from -125 in Hillsdale to -400 in Cass County. All six regional non-metro labor markets recorded lower levels of employment, but the number of jobseekers were virtually flat in August compared to a year ago (Table 3).
