WHAT'S DRIVING OUR ECONOMY?

Unemployment drops to 2.0 percent. State gains 4,700 jobs.

Between May and June, Maryland experienced the largest statewide month-to-month drop in unemployment of any state. The state has the lowest unemployment rate in the Mid-Atlantic. A closer look at the underlying unemployment figures shows that June’s drop in the unemployment rate is due to unemployed persons becoming employed, and not any substantial change to the size of the labor force, suggesting continued economic growth.
