The Lansing area's unemployment rate dropped to 9.2 percent in October, the lowest in nearly two years.
The jobless rate for Ing-ham, Clinton and Eaton counties receded for the third consecutive month, the Department of Energy, Labor & Economic Growth reported Tuesday.
October's rate, the lowest since an 8.1 percent jobless rate in December 2008, dropped from 9.9 percent in September and 10.4 percent in October 2009.
...
The area continued to report some of the lowest unemployment rates among the state's 83 counties.
Clinton County ranked third with 8 percent, while Eaton followed with 8.1 percent. Ingham County had the 12th lowest rate at 9.9 percent.
