Coast Population Growth Ups Need for Job Openings
The San Francisco Federal Reserve notes West Coast population gains heighten demand for more and better jobs. In 1949 unemployment rose in the 12th District due to weaker industry activity while insured unemployment stayed high as labor force grew. Estimations show a 11-2 percent rise in labor force across the three coast states, implying about 80 000 plus new jobs needed to absorb new workers and support growth in industries and services.
