Google makes it very easy to compare unemployment rates in counties and states across the U.S.
While the info for the states is a few weeks stale, the national rate is up-to-date. Hover your cursor over any point to see the rate for that month.
On a side note: I’m often in conversation with folks about the topic of unemployment and I’m typically defending the fact that there ARE jobs in North Carolina. High unemployment doesn’t not translate into zero available jobs. While there aren’t enough jobs to employ the nearly 500,000 of you who are out of work right now, there are enough to get you out of bed in the morning and do you best to land one.
