Press Release Schedule
The CES geographic data are available for all states and areas each
month about 6 weeks after the survey reference week. For example,
"preliminary" data for November 2012 and "final" data for October 2012
will be released in a comprehensive state press release on December 21,
2012. Many states will release their individual state and area data prior to the release dates below.
The annual release of new benchmark data is effective with the
preliminary January estimates each year. These estimates are available in
early March. New seasonally adjusted data for the preceding 5 years and
factors to be applied to the current year's estimates are also released
with the benchmark.
Below is the current press release schedule.
