Labor Market Equity Simulator

Imagine that racial and gender gaps no longer exist in the labor market. Would there be more shared prosperity in your state? For this thought experiment, Federal Reserve community development experts crunched the numbers for 15 years of data spanning 2005-2019. For every US state and Washington DC, they modeled how much gross domestic product (GDP) would have increased each year by eliminating racial and gender gaps in earnings, hours worked, educational attainment, and employment.

Native American Labor Market Dashboard

Three of the most commonly used labor market metrics are the labor force participation rate, the employment-to-population ratio, and the unemployment rate. The Native American Labor Market Dashboard from the Minneapolis Fed’s Center for Indian Country Development provides these three metrics for the American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) population. In doing so, it fills a gap in the published estimates that are available from the federal statistical agencies. Together, the metrics in the dashboard provide a timely assessment of how AI/AN workers are faring, which may differ substantially from the conditions of workers overall.

Disruptions from Wildfire Smoke: 12th District Data Portal and Regional Snapshots

In Fall 2022, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco published Disruptions from Wildfire Smoke: Vulnerabilities in Local Economies and Disadvantaged Communities in the U.S. The report described increasing wildfire smoke trends across the entire country, including communities located far from fires.

Wildfire smoke can interrupt business and has important economic implications, including increased occupational hazards for outdoor workers, school closures, and increased costs for renters and homeowners.

The tool developed by the San Francisco Fed allows users to investigate wildfire smoke and disadvantaged communities more closely.
