A percentile here is a min-max scaling of average rank: the smallest published value in the cohort is 0 and the largest is 100, and tied values share the average of the ranks they span. It is not the share of entities below the value, so 0 means smallest, not none below. Entities that did not publish the metric are outside the cohort entirely and are counted in neither the rank nor its denominator.

BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, metropolitan area tables, committed to this repository rather than fetched. A location quotient above 1 means the occupation is more concentrated here than in the United States as a whole; wages are means, not medians, and BLS suppresses a wage where its sample is too thin.

Housing #

currentas of 2026-09retrieved 2026-10-19

The typical home in the New York, NY metro was worth $730,949 in September 2026.

25 months to September 2026. Rent: $3,546 in September 2026.

Zillow's metro row was matched to this CBSA BY NAME, not by a shared code: Zillow titles metros short ("Austin, TX") where the Census titles them long. Both series are Zillow's own smoothed indices of the middle third of the market, not sale prices.

Employment, rolled up from member counties #

About 9,493,147 covered jobs across the 22 member counties BLS published.

There are no QCEW metro employment totals here, and that is a property of the data rather than an omission: BLS does publish MSA area codes (C####), but lib/economy's QCEW reader handles only county (SSCCC), state (SS000) and national (US000) rows at aggregation levels 74, 54 and 14, and the /api/economy route regex rejects anything else. So this figure is a sum of member counties, labelled an estimate, with every county it could not count named.

What these numbers are not

  • There is no metro market report: MarketReport describes a county or a state, and BLS QCEW's own metro rows follow each year's delineation, so they are not used here. The metro page shows Zillow's own metro rows and a county-rollup employment estimate with its arithmetic instead.
  • Zillow's metro row was matched to this CBSA BY NAME (Zillow titles metros short, "Austin, TX", where the Census titles them long), not by a shared code. RegionID 394913.
  • Metro employment is an ESTIMATE: the sum of the member counties BLS did publish, not BLS QCEW's own metro row, whose boundaries follow each year's delineation. Withheld counties are named and excluded, never zeroed.
  • The indicator block is the NATIONAL set, filtered only by lens. None of these series is keyed to this place: they are United States, gauge, single-state or port series and they are shown as context, not as this place's own readings.
