Data Sources and Calculations

Industry Data

In order to capture a complete picture of industry employment, EMSI basically combines covered employment data from Quarterly Census of

Employment and Wages (QCEW) produced by the Department of Labor with total employment data in Regional Economic Information System (REIS)

published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), augmented with County Business Patterns (CBP) and Nonemployer Statistics (NES) published

by the U.S. Census Bureau. Projections are based on the latest available EMSI industry data, 15-year past local trends in each industry, growth rates

in statewide and (where available) sub-state area industry projections published by individual state agencies, and (in part) growth rates in national

projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Occupation Data

Organizing regional employment information by occupation provides a workforce-oriented view of the regional economy. EMSI's occupation data are

based on EMSI's industry data and regional staffing patterns taken from the Occupational Employment Statistics program (U.S. Bureau of Labor

Statistics). Wage information is partially derived from the American Community Survey. The occupation-to-program (SOC-to-CIP) crosswalk is based

on one from the U.S. Department of Education, with customizations by EMSI.

Demographic DataThe demographic data in this report is compiled from several sources using a specialized process. Sources include US Census Bureau annual

estimates, birth and mortality rates from the US Health Department, and projected regional job growth.

State Data Sources

This report uses state data from the following agencies: New Mexico Department of Labor, Bureau of Economic Research and Analysis.
