WASHINGTON – Call them the Final Four: The four large cities that have made it through the Great Recession with the smallest increases in unemployment.
Minneapolis, Buffalo, Oklahoma City and Rochester, N.Y., don't have much else in common. But a government report shows they've had the smallest increases in joblessness over the past two years among cities with at least 1 million people.
Um...shouldn't this be cities less then 1 million? January 15 2009 8 of my co-workers were laid off. At least 6 are still unemployed (to be fair, two of them haven't really tried to find anything). Lost track of the other two.
