July 24, 201311 yr June and July numbers are really tricky with the large number of school-related employees who suddenly become unemployed. Yeah, the unemployment rates rose from a combination of that and a growing labor force as more people are starting to look for work that weren't counted before. The latter is actually good news in terms of how the economy is being perceived.

February 27, 201510 yr http://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/print-edition/2015/02/27/cincinnati-leads-ohio-cities-in-jobs-growth.html This article contains the metro jobs data for 2014 and discusses the 3 C's, primarily. It doesn't have the breakdown of some of the previous posts in this thread, but seems to have the top-line numbers. Cincinnati: 2014 Jobs: 1,055,000 2013 Jobs: 1,033,000 Increase: 2.1% (22,000 jobs) Cleveland: 2014 Jobs: 1,044,000 2013 Jobs: 1,031,000 Increase: 1.2% (13,000 jobs) Columbus: 2014 Jobs: 1,001,000 2013 Jobs: 993,000 Increase: .8% (8000 jobs) The article also mentions that Dayton added 8,800 jobs, for a 2.3% increase. It doesn't give the numbers, but I think that would put Dayton around the 382,000 (or so) job range. (Someone more exact with math will probably get the numbers, or going to the source...) Big takeaway may be the fact that all 3 C's are now above 1 million jobs in the metro region.
February 27, 201510 yr If all that is correct, it looks like Cincinnati is close to their 2007 pre-recession jobs (currently -5,000 jobs), Cleveland still has a bit of a ways to go from 2007 (currently -46,000 jobs) and Columbus has recovered nicely from 2007 (+44,000 jobs)

I see at one point the pre-recession peak listed as over 1.1 million jobs in Cincinnati. Not sure if this article is using the same source as those numbers above or not.
