The most recent (July 2011) unemployment rate for the areas in Saginaw are:
Saginaw County: 10.4
Saginaw City: 17.5
Saginaw Charter Township: 5.5
Below is the link to the Bureau of Labor Market Information & Strategic Initiatives (LMISI). We are the workforce agencies that produce the Michigan unemployment statistics in cooperation with BLS. I've always thought that the LMISI website was better to navigate through when looking for statistics on local areas:

Subject: Unemployment Rate for City of Saginaw
Dear Rhea Acuna,
I am looking for the most recent unemployment rate for the city of Saginaw based on BLS recent release. I could get the unemployment data on the MSA but I am not able to narrow down to the city of Saginaw itself, especially the area east of the river.
