Unemployment Rate in the United States increased to 4.20 percent in July from 4.10 percent in June of 2025. This dataset provides the latest reported value for - United States Unemployment Rate - plus previous releases, historical high and low, short-term forecast and long-term prediction, economic calendar, survey consensus and news.

Context

To contribute towards the research and analysis on COVID-19 and it's impact on the human life, I have made this data available in usable format for analysis.

Content

1. This dataset contains time series data of unemployment rate in US from January 2010 to Present. It contains unemployment rate records based on education qualification, race, and gender of adults.
2. This dataset also contains state-wise unemployment rate data for year 2020. The data set is clean and doesn't require much pre-processing. Dataset can be used with BI tools like Tableau as well.

Inspiration

1. Combine with COVID-19 dataset to understand the impact on Unemployment rate in the United States.
2. Perform Individual study on Unemployment in United States.

The data set provides readers with data on the first half of the workforce for the years 2011 to 2020, per capita income for the first half of 2020 compared to 2019, and the unemployment rate in the working age. activities in the first half of the year from 2011 to 2020.

Dataset in excel of main macroeconomic indicators growth from 2017 to 2021 for near 200 countries and according to IMF data. It allows us to quickly assess the impact of the COVID19 in the global economic

It includes: real GDP growth, GDP per capita, inflation, unemployment rate, general government net lending /borrowing.

The number of Americans applying for help from the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance scheme, which covers workers that do not qualify for initial claims, decreased to 0.897 thousand in the week ending December 25th from 1.554 thousand in the prior week. This dataset provides - United States Pandemic Unemployment Assistance Claims- actual values, historical data, forecast, chart, statistics, economic calendar and news.

The employment and unemployment indicator shows several data points. The first figure is the number of people in the labor force, which includes the number of people who are either working or looking for work. The second two figures, the number of people who are employed and the number of people who are unemployed, are the two subcategories of the labor force. The unemployment rate is a calculation of the number of people who are in the labor force and unemployed as a percentage of the total number of people in the labor force.

The unemployment rate does not include people who are not employed and not in the labor force. This includes adults who are neither working nor looking for work. For example, full-time students may choose not to seek any employment during their college career, and are thus not considered in the unemployment rate. Stay-at-home parents and other caregivers are also considered outside of the labor force, and therefore outside the scope of the unemployment rate.

The unemployment rate is a key economic indicator, and is illustrative of economic conditions in the county at the individual scale.

There are additional considerations to the unemployment rate. Because it does not count those who are outside the labor force, it can exclude individuals who were looking for a job previously, but have since given up. The impact of this on the overall unemployment rate is difficult to quantify, but it is important to note because it shows that no statistic is perfect.

The unemployment rates for Champaign County, the City of Champaign, and the City of Urbana are extremely similar between 2000 and 2023.

All three areas saw a dramatic increase in the unemployment rate between 2006 and 2009. The unemployment rates for all three areas decreased overall between 2010 and 2019. However, the unemployment rate in all three areas rose sharply in 2020 due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The unemployment rate in all three areas dropped again in 2021 as pandemic restrictions were removed, and were almost back to 2019 rates in 2022. However, the unemployment rate in all three areas rose slightly from 2022 to 2023.

--- Dataset description provided by original source is as follows ---

ANOFM calculates and publishes statistical indicators on registered unemployment, as required by the law. Registered unemployed persons represent both the unemployed paid (unemployed jobseekers with work experience benefits and SOMERI recipients of unemployment benefits without work experience/education graduates) as well as the unemployed (without receiving unemployment benefits) and are squeezed on the basis of data from the primary documents and records in the database of territorial employment agencies. Is the stock at the end of the reference month. The unemployment rate recorded is determined as the ratio between the number of unemployed persons registered with the county and Bucharest employment agencies (paid and unpaid) at the end of the reference month and the active civilian population. The civilian active population represents the potential labour supply and employment of the civilian and registered unemployed population. The indicator is determined annually by the National Institute of Statistics by means of the balance of labour at country, development region and county level. The rate of summons is calculated with the population of civil activity on 1 January 2017. The total number of registered SOMERI is structured on: Gender (women, Barbate), Type of compensation (indemnities, non-indemnities); Level of education (without education, primary education, secondary education, upper secondary education, postgraduate education, professional education/arts and trades, university education); Age groups (under 25, 25-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-55 years, over 55 years).

This dataset provides the Unemployment Rate (UR) in percentage according to usual status (ps+ss) for each State and Union Territory in India, categorized by age groups: 15-29 years, 15-59 years, 15 years and above, and all ages. It is sourced from the PLFS by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation and offers insights into regional and age-group-specific unemployment rates. For 2023-24, Chandigarh's entire area has been considered urban for this survey, with data available only for the age groups 15-59 years, 15 years and above, and all ages. Before 2019-20, Ladakh was part of Jammu and Kashmir, and since 2020-21, Daman and Diu has been merged with Dadra and Nagar Haveli to form the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu.
