The Southwest Coast Economy:

Since October of last year, Coos County employment lost 40 jobs. Retail trade remained steady and had no over-the-year change for Coos, but the largest losses were seen in general merchandise stores (-70 jobs), a subsector within retail trade. Curry County employment fell by 30 jobs over the past year, but gains were estimated in leisure and hospitality (+10 jobs), and trade, transportation, and utilities (+10). Unemployment rates ticked up a couple percentage points from last month, but are still near historic lows for both counties.
