Unemployment dipped briefly below 9% this spring, but floated back up to 10% in June and July. The car-parts makers that were once Muncie's life blood have largely given up on it; but creating skilled manufacturing jobs at a new locomotive factory is turning out to be a hard slog. Since sociologists Robert and Helen Lynd rechristened it Middletown in a famous study in 1929, Muncie has been regarded as representative of the American experience.
