Yes it is indeed all time… as in ever.. peak employment for Pittsburgh employment with the release of June data on total nonfarm jobs in the region. We will likely see an (I guess I should say another) all time peak employment number for the region for the same period when that data is released next week.
Yes.. a peak higher than anything before steel declined and now a peak above the somewhat artificial summer of 2001 which had a lot of construction going on. Take out that itinerant construction employment and the trend has looked a lot more positive over much of the decade than many want to acknowledge.
