Employment Job Vacancy Rate
• Other Services and Construction are among the industries with the lowest employment numbers in Local Area I, yet have the two highest vacancy rates of any industry supersector in that area. This indicates that such supersectors may have potential for growth in the coming years.
• While the Financial Services industry had one of the highest job vacancy rates of any supersector at the statewide level (3.6 percent), it had one of the lowest vacancy rates in Local Area I (1.2 percent). This indicates that it may be more difficult to find a job in such industry in Local Area I than it is statewide.
