A new briefing from the University of Michigan’s Detroit Metro Area Communities Study showed a significant decrease in the unemployment rate as pandemic recovery efforts continue. Lydia Wileden, a research assistant with DMACS, suggests that it offers a more thorough picture of the local labor market because it offers a means of measurement for the employment situation of the city by direct experiences.
