The figure to the left portrays the unemployment rate by county, seasonally adjusted for this year. The Department of Labor publishes these statistics on a monthly basis. The Bureau of Labor only includes those who have been out of work within four(4) weeks or less in 2012. It does not represent the actual percentage of people who are jobless. These numbers are readily available to the public 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. They can be searched by city, or by county. These figures essentially determine the length of compensation pay. They also serve as a formidable source of reference to measure economic trends across the United States. |
