Labor Market :
Employment declined by 3 jobs in August and September. The job losses brought about an increase in
the average monthly unemployment rate from 9.5% in the second quarter to 9.8% for the initial two
months of the third quarter. Layoffs continued to rise, which will weigh buyer confidence and demand in
Anderson County. However, mortgage rates have once again hit record lows, creating a favorable
buying environment for those with a job.
