Total Civilian Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)

Includes all individuals who worked at least one hour for a wage or salary, self-employed, or working at least 15 unpaid hours in a family business or on a family farm. Those who on vacation, on other kinds of leave, or involved in a labor dispute, are also counted as employed. Data for Assembly, Senate, and Congressional Districts are estimated using the LAUS Census Share methodology using data from the 5-year American Community Survey (ACS) estimates. This approach assumes that the rates of change for employment and unemployment within the larger geographic area are the same as those within the smaller geographic area being estimated. Not seasonally adjusted. http://www.labormarketinfo.edd.ca.gov/data/unemployment-and-labor-force.html

Data is preliminary and revised in the subsequent month. Multiple years are subject to change in the annual revisions. Release schedule: http://www.labormarketinfo.edd.ca.gov/data-release-schedule.html

Employment: Manufacturing (QCEW)

Data is number of wage and salary jobs at all establishments reporting to the Unemployment Insurance program, representing about 99.7% of all wage and salary civilian employment in the US. The data is establishment based, meaning it counts the number of wage and salary jobs rather than the number of people employed. An individual worker may hold more than one job, but each job is counted separately in the data base. Similarly, the jobs may be full or part time, but each one is treated equally for the purposes of counting employment. All data is for quarterly averages. The 2002 version of NAICS is used for 1990 to 2006, 2007 version for 2007 to 2011, and 2012 version for 2012 and later. Comparisons across these periods should take these changes into account.

Employment and wage data does not include proprietors, self-employed in an unincorporated business or practice, unpaid family members, certain farm and domestic workers, jobs held by those not working because of a labor-management dispute. Quarterly data subject to revision in the annual updates. Release schedule: https://www.bls.gov/cew/releasecalendar.htm

Employment: Manufacturing (CES)

Data is from monthly surveys covering about one-third of total nonfarm employment. Employment covers the number of persons on payroll, but does not include proprietors, unincorporated self-employed, volunteer or unpaid family workers, farm employees, domestic employees, non-civilian government, and employees of intelligence services.

Establishments: Accommodation & Food Services

Number of establishments is the number of individual physical locations reported by all firms within each NAICS code. An employer may operate more than one establishment at the same location if the operations fall under distinctly different NAICS codes and if separate records are maintained. Similarly, employers may operate a number of different establishments at different locations. The 2002 version of NAICS is used for 1990 to 2006, 2007 version for 2007 to 2011, and 2012 version for 2012 and later. Comparisons across these periods should take these changes into account.

Data for counties, regions, and legislative districts estimated from zip code data provided by the Statistical Research & Modeling Section of the Franchise Tax Board, with assistance through Board of Equalization Boardmember George Runner’s office. The zip code data was aggregated by legislative district and county based on zip code equivalence files provided to FTB by the Center.

For counties, regions, and legislative districts, the data shown covers only returns that could be allocated within the state. The summation of these geographic areas differ from the state totals due to the following factors: (1) additional returns are filed by out of state individuals for income earned within California, (2) a relatively small number of returns are unallocated by geographic area, and (3) some of the returns are not disclosable by zip code or county level. These amounts are included with the state data but are not allocated by the various geographic regions.

Similarly, the jobs may be full or part time, but each one is treated equally for the purposes of counting employment.

Energy Production: Non-CO2

Share of electricity generation from renewable and sources producing no carbon dioxide emissions: geothermal, solar, wind, wood and wood derived fuel, other biomass, conventional hydroelectric, nuclear, and net production from pumped storage.

Data generally update Oct/Nov. Data based on generation within each state and does not include imports from other states. For example, in 2016, California imported 32% of its electricity, of which only one-third was from identifiable non-CO2 producing sources. This generation is assigned to the states in which it was produced and not applied to California’s total.

Source: US Energy Information Administration

Energy Production: Solar & Wind

Total electricity generation (thousand megawatt-hours) from utility-scale solar and wind. Preliminary data available monthly, with final annual data generally having a 2-year lag. Data based on generation within each state and does not include imports from other states. Currently, distributed generation (i.e., thermal and photovoltaic solar panels) is only in the monthly data beginning 2015.

Source: US Energy Information Administration

Energy Related CO2 Emissions: Total

Total CO2 emissions cover direct fuel use across all sectors along with fuels used for electric generation allocated based on the location where fuels are consumed. For feedstock applications such as plastics, carbon stored in products is subtracted from emissions in the states where they are produced. Biomass is treated as carbon neutral. The data covers over 80% of total CO2 emissions in the US.

Counts emissions based on where energy is used. For example, California imported about a third of its electricity in 2016, but the associated emissions are counted in the state of production rather than California.

Unemployed (Not Seasonally Adjusted)

Individuals who are not working but are able, available, and actively looking for work. Individuals who are waiting to be recalled from a layoff, and individuals waiting to report to a new job within 30 days are also considered to be unemployed. Data for Assembly. Senate, and Congressional Districts are estimated using the LAUS Census Share methodology using data from the 5-year American Community Survey (ACS) estimates. This approach assumes that the rates of change for employment and unemployment within the larger geographic area are the same as those within the smaller geographic area being estimated.
