The largest over the month job gain in the metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) was realized in Las Vegas, at 3,700. Reno added 300 jobs over the month while Carson City remained unchanged and in line with seasonal expectations. Both Reno and Las Vegas added jobs at a faster rate than the State as a whole in September. September s report also shows strong job growth over the month in Reno and Las Vegas continues to constructively impact those areas unemployment rates. Positive job growth statewide in September is reflecting similar results in many of the rural counties in the State. Fifteen counties realized over the year declines in their unemployment rates in September. The Silver State continues to show positive results in its labor market as urban areas continue to expand their workforce. People are still finding jobs which is keeping unemployment rates relatively low in the metro areas. Initial claims continue to decline in the metros indicating job seekers are remaining in the workforce upon entrance, said David Schmidt, Chief Economist, for Nevada s Department of Employment, Training & Rehabilitation.

As for Nevada s major population centers, gains were realized in the Las Vegas and Reno metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) this month. Las Vegas employment saw a seasonally-adjusted increase of 3,700 jobs, the result of increasing by 7,400 jobs when only 3,700 were expected to be added. Reno employment realized a seasonally-adjusted increase of 300 jobs, the result of increasing by 3,100 jobs when an increase of only 2,800 jobs was expected in the area. Carson City employment remained unchanged and in line with seasonal expectations. Year-over-year employment increased in the State as a whole and in all MSAs in September. Reno and Las Vegas both added jobs at a faster rate than the State as a whole this month. Statewide, jobs increased by 3.2 percent, which correlates to 43,500 new jobs added since September of last year. Las Vegas accounted for the majority of nominal employment gains this month. In Las Vegas, jobs increased by 34,200 year over year, which correlates to a growth rate of 3.5 percent. Specifically, goods-producing industries added 9,200 jobs to payrolls while service-providing 500 E. Third St. Carson City, Nevada 89713 (775) 684-0450 Fax (775) 684-0342 www.nvdetr.org

This month, we analyze how the Reno-Sparks industry concentration compares to similar cities in the western United States. The rankings are based on that industry s (2-Digit NAICS) share of total employment in the respective MSA. Cities were chosen on the basis of being of similar population (2015) and geography similar to the Reno-Sparks MSA. Transportation and Warehousing is an industry where Reno-Sparks concentration far job growth; annual percentage change Job Growth by Metro Area '14 '15 '16 '17 '18 Las Vegas Reno Carson City exceeds that of Fort Collins, Colorado, Provo, Utah, Spokane, Washington, and Vallejo, California. It ranks fourth in Reno-Sparks while being no higher than 10th in the others. Accommodation and food services is the number one industry in the Reno-Sparks area making it similar to the other metro areas listed. It ranks no lower than third in the other four cities. Retail trade and health care and social assistance rank the highest in the others. The top ten industries are fairly similar amongst all five metro areas albeit in different order with transportation and warehousing typically falling lower in the rankings. unemployment rate 7.0% 6.0% 5.0% 4.0% 3.0% Unemployment Rate by Metro Area O N D J F M A M J J A S O N D J F M A M J J A S '16 '17 '18 Las Vegas Reno Carson City The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) provides state gross domestic product (GDP) metro information, the most comprehensive measure of economic activity. GDP by metropolitan area is derived as the sum of the GDP originating in all the industries in the metropolitan area. This month, we analyze the GDP in each of the State s population centers. Gross domestic product in the Las Vegas MSA totaled $96.1 billion in 2017. Las Vegas s 2017 ¹ References to total MSA employment are adjusted for seasonality, whereas references to goods-producing and service-providing industries are not.
GDP is up $2.5 billion from 2016 or 2.7 percent. Since 2011, Las Vegas s GDP has increased over the year in each year leading up to 2017. Gross domestic product in the Reno MSA totaled $23.1 billion in 2017. Reno s GDP increased by 1.2 billion, or 5.6 percent from this same time in 2016. After experiencing two straight years of declines in GDP over the year in 2011 and 2012, the Reno MSA has realized steady increases in GDP since 2013. Nye Mineral Lyon Clark Nevada Lincoln Carson City Esmeralda Douglas Storey Churchill Pershing Washoe Humboldt White Pine Lander Elko Eureka Carson City s GDP totaled three billion dollars in 2017. From 2016 to 2017, Carson City s GDP increased by $170 million, or 5.9 percent. Gross domestic product in Carson City has increased over the year in the last two years following decline seen in 2015.

In Las Vegas, the unemployment rate is at 4.7 percent, down 0.2 percentage point from from August, and down half a percentage point from September last year. Reno s unemployment rate is at 3.4 percent, down 0.3 percentage point from August, and down half a percentage point from this time last year. The unemployment rate in Carson City is at 4.2 percent, down 0.1 percentage point from August, and down 0.3 percentage point from September of last year. Unemployment rates declined on an over-the-year basis in 15 of 17 counties this month. Rate declines ranged from 0.2 percentage point (Lincoln) to 0.8 percentage point (Lander, Nye, and Pershing). Mineral and Esmeralda realized the only rate increases of half and 0.3 percentage point, respectively, this month. Nye, at 5.7 percent, has the highest unemployment rate in the Silver State this month. All counties remain below six percent unemployment in September with ten counties at or below four percent. Eureka, at 2.2 percent, is home to the State s lowest unemployment rate. Eureka s rate this month marks the lowest rate 2 The State s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate is 4.5 percent in September, unchanged from August and down from 4.9 percent in September 2017. Unemployment rates for the State s metropolitan areas and counties reported here are not adjusted for seasonality. Hence, comparisons to the State s seasonally adjusted rate should be avoided. Legitimate comparisons, however, can be made to the State s unadjusted rate 4.4 percent in September, down from 4.7 percent in August and down from 4.9 percent in September 2017.
it s had on record which dates back to 1997. Elko and Lander (both at three percent) also maintain relatively low unemployment rates. The Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) Program, produced by State agencies in cooperation with the Bureau of Labor Statistics, allows us to assess growth/ decline in each county s labor force, employment, unemployment and the unemployment rate (unemployment-labor force ratio). Figures mentioned below are not seasonally adjusted. Labor force includes those actively involved in the labor market, either employed or actively looking for work. For the purpose of this analysis, an urban area is defined as a metropolitan area, and all other areas are considered rural areas. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) defines metropolitan statistical areas as an area that has at least one urbanized area of 50,000 or more population, plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured by commuting ties. Over-the-year estimates through September 2018 show that labor force growth is concentrated in the State s urban areas: Clark County, Reno-Sparks (which includes Washoe County and Storey County), and Carson City. Urban areas in Nevada have been experiencing strong employment increases. Despite the decrease in unemployment, the other component of labor force, strong employment growth has led to an increase in overall labor force growth. This likely reflects that unemployed Nevadans are finding jobs. Clark County s labor force is up 30,990, Washoe s has increased by 8,670, Storey is up 71, and Carson City s is up 810 in 2018 through September, compared to the first nine months of last year. These urban areas show an increase in employment and a decrease in unemployment. Washoe s unemployment rate is down by half a percentage point relative to the first nine months of 2017, Storey s rate is down 0.6 percentage point, Clark County rate decline registered at 0.4 percentage point, while Carson City rate declined 0.3 percentage point. Similarly, half of the rural counties are showing the same pattern as the urban areas during this period. All six counties had an increase in employment and a decrease in unemployment. Although these areas have fewer industries compared to the urban area, they still have a broad distribution. On the other hand, the remaining seven rural counties had a reduction in labor force. Five experienced decreases in employment and unemployment, while Esmeralda had a decrease in employment and an increase in unemployment. These areas have a smaller number of industries and a higher concentration in mining. Over this period, only Esmeralda County saw an increase in unemployment. This increase reflects an increase in unemployment claims in the construction industry and in the mining industry. The largest declines in the unemployment rate are found in Lander (down 0.91 percentage points), followed by Humboldt with a decline of 0.69 and Nye with a decline of 0.64 percentage points. Statewide weekly unemployment insurance (UI) initial claims for unemployment insurance, using a 13-week moving average, have declined by nearly 7.11 percent through the end of September, when compared to the same period last year. However, this decrease was largely localized in Clark County, which experienced a decline of 6.6 percent, or more than 140 claims. Washoe County s initial claims declined by 15.2 percent, down 42 claims from a year ago. The only county to experience a marked increase in claims was Storey, up 16 claims in the reference period. The rest of the State s counties were stagnant or experienced nominal declines of no more than seven. Year-to-date online job posting activity
decreased in 13 of 17 counties in September 3. Clark (+53,500) experienced the largest increase in ad volume over last year, totaling 163,800 ads year-to-date. Washoe has also seen a notable increase in ad volume over last year (+16,500), totaling 43,200 ads year-to-date. Eureka (+23) and Storey (+23), are the only other counties who saw increases in ad volume over last year. Carson City has realized the largest decrease of ads (-1,300) over last year, totaling 5,600 ads through September of this year. Other notable declines in job ads were realized in Douglas (-1,100), Elko (-1,100), and Churchill (-800) counties. Despite job posting volume being down in many of Nevada s smaller counties, Statewide job posting activity continues to show improvement. The State as a whole has posted 226,900 ads through September, up 64,000 ads over the year.

Online job posting volume does not necessarily correlate with the level of job openings or hiring. Internal company hiring and union hiring are often not captured by online ads. High ad volume often occurs for occupations/industries that are having difficulty finding qualified candidates, high turnover positions/recurring openings, or when companies are building large candidate pools. Online job postings should only be used with caution when developing/analyzing time series trends due to the constant changes in the rate of online advertising usage and in the methods used for collecting the data.
