Jobs: Texas And Florida Set Year-Over-Year "New Jobs" Record -- October 20, 2018 -- Making America Great

The fact that this is being reported at the CNS news site tells me that it is not being reported by the mainstream media. Wow. Incredible.


Data points:
  • Texas and Florida: led the nation in the number of nonfarm jobs they added, year-over-year
  • Texas and Florida: set all-time records for number of jobs added in any Sept-to-Sept period on record
  • Ohio, "rust belt": saw largest increase in jobs in 21 years
  • Pennsylvania, "rust belt": saw largest increase in jobs in 18 years
  • 37 states had year-over-year increased in nonfarm payroll employment
  • states that added most jobs
    • Florida: +407,300 jobs
    • Texas: +406,400
    • California: +339,600
  • states with greatest percentage change
    • Florida: +4.8%
    • Utah: +3.6%
    • Texas: +3.3%
  • Unemployment rate:
    • FL: 3.5%
    • TX: 3.8%
    • CA: 4.1%
From the linked story:
While California ranked third among all states for the number of job gained during the period from September 2017 to September 2018, its statewide jobs growth numbers during that period were actually smaller than they were in two of the previous three September-to-September periods. (From September 2014 to September 2015, California added 493,000 jobs; from 2015 to 2016, it added 393,800 jobs; and from 2016 to 2017, it added 307,500 jobs).
At the linked site, the graph for Florida is similar to that of Texas below:
