Unemployment Numbers Up in Springfield & Decatur

Posted 2012-07-27 05:57:00 by WMAY News


Unemployment is up slightly in Springfield.

 

The jobless rate in the city and surrounding areas climbed to 7.7 percent in June, up one-tenth of one-percent from a year ago.

 

Decatur saw a spike in its unemployment rate, jumping from 10.5 percent to 11 percent last month.

 

But Rockford, which has had some of the highest unemployment in the state, saw its rate fall almost a full-percentage point in June compared to 2011.
