According to these estimates, most counties in Utah continued to maintain lower levels of unemployment than the national average.
On the other hand, my data-police role requires me to remind you that the county-level rates are estimates (as opposed to being based on survey data). In addition, a one-tenth of a point change either way (which is the change we're talking about for all but one county) is not statistically significant. Finally, the change in the number of jobs is a better indicator of economic well-being. New county-level jobs data should be available in the next month.
