Tennessee’s unemployment rate held steady for the third month in a row at 3.5%, more than half a percentage point below the national rate, according to data released by the Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development (TDLWD).
The state’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in June was the same as its April and May rates. In June 2024, the rate was 3.3%.
The U.S. unemployment rate was 4.1% in June, down one-tenth of a percentage point from the previous month. A year ago, the U.S. rate also was 4.1%.
