Laconia jobless/unemployed

I left out the details with respect for his children. I am a father of three daughters and I know how sensitive children can be.

It's not rocket science to find suicide. With help from the police blotter and the obits you can easily figure out suicide cases.

Police blotters will print, a 'call to such a place for EMT assistance' with no details. Obits will say died 'at home' with no family presence or the word peacefully is absence. Just read between the lines. There were quite a few around the Lakes Region.

Another sign is increased in probate court activities with property foreclosures well below market value. That alone can drive property values in the neighborhood down for at least six months.

Cash cow for lawyers, tough luck for the rest of us.

Ok, now that the numbers for April have been in for a couple weeks, lets take a look-see at the Belknap County jobs numbers. Looking at http://www.nh.gov/nhes/elmi/lausbrief.htm, it says that the rate of unemployment has gone down from 8.7% to 7.2%, but at the same time the number of people working has only increased by ten, having the labor force going from 32150 in March to 31620 in April. So, the Belknap labor force decreased by 530.

Did anyone see 530 people leave Belknap County? Where did they go? How's this all translate?
