I'm sure some of them are. I have no idea (and it hasn't been reported) what percent are or aren't.
But at least they have gone UP. Most states, even with summer employment propping them up, have gone down.
It is all relative - how is WI doing compared to the rest of the states (since last I looked, it is summer everywhere right now, and all states hire for the summer tourist season - it's not like WI is the tourist mecca of the nation).
How did MN do, for example? There jobs numbers should have gone way up, being a northern vacation state??? I didn't see the press release, so they must not have added jobs.
Do you have any idea what Northern WI is like? People from WI do not go to Minny to vacation unless they go to Valley Fair for a day, the people who vacation in Minnesota are from Minny already, mostly the Minneapolis area. Come up to Northern WI from Osceola, Centuria, Spooner, Wascott, Gordon, Minong, Hayward, Phillips, Ashland, Stone Lake, Shell Lake, Butternut, Park Falls, and Many others up here. These are all little small towns of about 500 - 2000, try driving through one right now. Takes forever, Mostly Minnesota and Illinois Plates, now go to areas in Minnesota around Duluth, Lake of the Woods, Vermillion, and Brainerd, guess what mostly Minnesota Plates some Illinois but mostly Minnnesota. They are all coming here. I do not know much about the southern part of WI but Northern WI is where it is at in the summer.
