Note: Revised labor force estimates for 1990-1997 reflect incorporationof revised 1990 Census population inputs. In addition, the estimates starting with January 1994 are not directly comparable to the data prior to thatdate due to the redesign of the Current Population Survey by the U.S. Bureauof Labor Statistics.* The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics has identified these towns asa separate Labor Market Area. For the convenience of our data users, datafor these towns are included in the Torrington LMA.
