I don't think it is flawed it just doesn't measure where, but there's still useful information. I doubt that there could be a 12.5% growth without at least a decent amount of growth within the CMA (although that could be people commuting to Burlington from Hamilton).
With such low employment for people in Hamilton, Hamilton employers would have to offer more money than in the past. I would be curious to see if this has affected the participation rate much as I think in 2017 that's a better measure than the unemployment rate.
