    US metro employment momentum intelligence (monthly)

    Monthly US metro employment momentum intelligence from the BLS Current Employment Statistics state-and-area program (keyless BLS Public Data API v2): total-nonfarm employment for the 50 largest metropolitan statistical areas, with year-over-year and smoothed momentum growth, a documented 0-100 metro employment-momentum score with per-month metro ranks, expanding / contracting / accelerating / 24-month-record-high flags, and month-level context: the national headline YoY, each metro's divergence from it, and the national spread. Metro CES is published not seasonally adjusted, so every momentum signal is YoY-based (seasonality-safe); month-over-month changes are deliberately excluded. Consistent methodology window 2017-01 onward. Caveats: the latest month is preliminary and routinely revised; estimates are benchmark-revised annually. BLS material is public domain (commercial reuse allowed); source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
