Regional Jobless Rate Declined In April

Central Ohio's unemployment rate for April is 3.8 percent, down six-tenths of a point from March. The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services credits companies hiring for seasonal positions.  The unemployment rate for Columbus and Franklin County matched that of the region. Delaware County’s unemployment rate of 3.1 percent was the lowest in the region.
