What does this measure?

The growth or decline in total jobs, shown as a percentage gain or loss from the previous year.

Why is this important?

Job growth is a key indicator of economic health and vitality and reveals whether and by how much an economy is expanding. In addition to the number of jobs, the quality of jobs should be considered - this is reflected in measures of average salary.

How is our region performing?

Total jobs increased by 2.3% in the region from 2020 to 2021, placing our region below the state and national level (at 2.6% and 3.0% respectively) while recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing shutdowns. The number of jobs rebounded in all counties in the region between 2020 and 2021 due to the rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic. Over that time period, Genesee experienced the largest increase at 4.1% in total jobs, a greater percentage than in the region and highest of the counties. Next highest was Ontario (3.5%) and Yates (3.3%).

Notes about the data

County employment is reported by place of work, not place of residence. Data for this indicator are expected to be released in the fourth quarter.
