Region on its Way to Full Employment Recovery, Report Says from the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review 
"The Pittsburgh metropolitan area is forecast to end this year with 1.16 million jobs, according to the report prepared by IHS Global Insight for the United States Conference of Mayors and the Council for the New American City. If the prediction holds up, the region will have more than regained the 37,500 jobs lost since the start of the recession when peak employment stood at 1.15 million jobs. Less than 15 percent of the country's 363 metropolitan areas have already or will recover their lost jobs by the end of this year, the report states."
