| Four of the six major Connecticut Labor Market Areas (LMAs) had job growth in
October 2012, and two LMAs had employment declines. The major Connecticut LMAs are calculated and
seasonally adjusted independently from the statewide numbers.
The Hartford-West Hartford-East Hartford LMA (1,300, 0.2%) and New Haven (1,100, 0.4%) led labor area growth this October. Also Danbury (600, 0.9%) and Waterbury (200, 0.3%) added to jobs this month. Norwich-New London (-600, -0.5%) continued employment weakness in October and leads all BLS recognized LMAs in jobs lost over the year (-2,200, -1.7%). Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk (-600, -0.2%) also posted a job loss this month, but still leads all Connecticut LMAs in job growth magnitude (3,600, 0.9%) since October 2011. Source: CTDOL |
