Synopsis

In December 2007, 6 years of economic growth ended as the U.S. economy entered the most severe recession since the Great Depression. Eighty-two percent of U.S. counties experienced job losses as a result of the recession, but some places were hit much harder than others, and some have recovered more rapidly. This report describes the nature and causes of this geographic variation, which include differences in the mix of industries that support the local economy, in population growth trends, and in the demographics of the local workforce. How did these factors lead to differences in employment outcomes between urban (metropolitan) and rural (nonmetropolitan) areas and among nonmetro counties? What explains geographic differences in the severity of unemployment during the recession and the pace of job growth since the end of the recession?
