Regional Unemployment Rate In March Down From February

The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services says the unemployment rate in central Ohio was 3.4 percent last month, down four-tenths of a point from February.  

87 out of Ohio's 88 counties saw lower jobless numbers. The rate for Franklin County was 3.3 percent. The rate for Columbus was 3.4 percent. Licking County had a 3.6 percent rate.
