Boulder has 8,000 fewer jobs than the benchmark level set in Dec., 2000.
An editorial I read in the Boulder paper talked about how the census shows the population of the City of Boulder has dropped over the last few years. The employment survey I cite here is for all of Boulder County, which includes cities like Longmont, Lafayette, and Louisville. The raw employment numbers do not reflect jobs relative to population, just the raw number of people employed in jobs, though the unemployment rate in Boulder County is still above the benchmark level in Dec., 2000: 2.0%.
