States with particularly worrisome job markets—where there have been substantial declines in the number of jobs and where the difference in wages between job-gaining and job-losing industries is particularly high—include:

New Hampshire, which still has fewer jobs than when the recession ended, and where the wages in industries gaining jobs are 35% lower than wages in industries losing jobs.

Delaware, which, likewise, has lost jobs since the recession ended and where job- gaining industries have wages 43% below those in job-losing industries.

Colorado, which has lost almost 2% of its jobs since the end of the recession and where job-gaining industry wages are 35% below the wages in job-losing industries.

West Virginia, which has lost 1.7% of its jobs since the end of the recession and where wages in job-gaining industries are 33% below wages in job-losing industries.
The shift in jobs from higher-paying industries to lower-paying industries has affected nearly every state. This dynamic has the potential to significantly slow the growth of living standards for working families.
