Where can I find employment information by state?
Asked by jaki f
I am looking for a website (or something) that can give me an idea of states or regions in the U.S. that employ certain occupations more than other states. For example, which states employ the most counselors/mental health professionals, or lawyers, or CEOs or whatever. Which states have the greatest need/demand/opportunity for which occupations-something like that! Thanks for your help!

Best Answer:
I think your best shots for finding the information would be the Department of Labor website and the latest U.S. Census data, also available online. US Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment projections http://www.bls.gov/emp/home.htm US Census Bureau http://www.census.gov Another really great resource with an enormous resource of information is Fedstats http://www.fedstats.gov/
