- Discontinuance of mailing paper copies of the New York-New Jersey Consumer Price Index (CPI) Announcement
As of April 1, 2008, subscribers will no longer receive paper copies of the New York-New Jersey CPI Announcement in the mail. The New York-New Jersey CPI Announcement will continue to be available through the Bureaus Web site.
A free email subscription service is available for the CPI announcement. Shortly after the CPI announcement is posted online each month, subscribers to this service receive an email message containing a link to the announcement. The subscription form with a list of available regional office CPI summaries (blue cards) is located at http://www.bls.gov/bls/list.htm.
The mailing of regional CPI announcements (summaries) and other regional publications is being discontinued as a result of unanticipated budget constraints faced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. See http://www.bls.gov/bls/budgetimpact.htm for details.
- The phone numbers of the New York Information Office are changing as of November 6. For public information call (646) 264-3600. The fax number, (212) 337-2532, is not changing.
- NEW "The economic impact of the creative arts industries: New York and Los Angeles" Data from the BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages provide a fresh perspective on the impact and value of the creative arts to the economies of New York and Los Angeles; one of every 4 creative arts industry jobs in the Nation operated out of either of those locales in 2006. The report is available at http://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2007/10/art3full.pdf.
- The effects of Hurricane Katrina on the New Orleans economy. Hurricane Katrina devastated the New Orleans economy; tourism, port operations, and educational services, the foundation of the city's economy, survived, offering a base for recovery. The report is available at http://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2007/06/art1full.pdf
Structural changes in Manhattan's post-9/ 11 economy Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Manhattan's global economy has seen its employment diminish in importance, while its role as a wage generator has increased. High wages in the global sector may be driving demand in the local sector. The report is available at: http://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2006/10/art4full.pdf 100 Years of U.S. Consumer Spending: Data for the Nation, New York City, and Boston In this new report, authors Michael L. Dolfman and Denis M. McSweeney use consumer expenditure data longitudinally and draw on information from decennial census reports to present a 100-year history of significant changes in consumer spending, economic status, and family demographics in the country as a whole, as well as in New York City and Boston. The report is available at http://www.bls.gov/opub/uscs/home.htm. 9/11 and the New York City economy: A borough-by-borough analysis. The effect of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, on the New York City economy was far reaching and extended to every borough of the city; hardest hit was New York's "export" sector-the most internationally oriented part of that economy. The report is available at http://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2004/06/art1full.pdf.
