A new study is shedding light on which careers and populations are most vulnerable to automation-induced job loss.

Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the University of Oxford’s study on “The Future of Employment,” we identified the 170 most at-risk occupations based on their probability of being replaced by machines, robots, and automation. From there, we determined how many potential jobs across America’s workforce and communities are in jeopardy.

28% (41 million) US jobs are considered most “at-risk” to automation
South Dakota, Nevada, and Florida are the states most vulnerable to job loss
Las Vegas, Orlando, and Miami are the metro areas most vulnerable to job loss
12 jobs most susceptible to automation (Telemarketer, Title examiners, Sewer hands, etc.)
