        1  Area boundaries do not reflect official OMB definitions.
        p = preliminary.
        NOTE:  Data are counts of jobs by place of work.  Estimates subsequent to the current benchmark
     are provisional and will be revised when new information becomes available.  Area definitions are
     based on Office of Management and Budget Bulletin No. 09-01, dated November 20, 2008, and available at
     http://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm.  Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England
     City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based.  Some metropolitan areas lie
     in two or more states.  They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles.  Davenport-
     Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill., and Weirton-Steubenville, W. Va.-Ohio, are the exceptions in that they are
     listed under Illinois and Ohio, respectively, for operational reasons.
