Keep in Mind…: 

Keep in Mind… LED not yet national in scope. LED does not yet include military, self-employed or federal workers. Data in OnTheMap refreshed annually. Not all states supply data at the same rate. OnTheMap reports top 10 cities/towns, top 10 counties, and top 3 states. For labor shed mapping, OnTheMap shows the home location of workers employed in a partner state whether they reside in the same or another state. Commute shed maps show where residents of a partner state are employed, but only for workplaces within that state.
