If you click on different geographic areas you will ntoice that the more populated the area the higher the rate of unemployment. I wonder if this means that you can beat unemployment by moving.Probably not. States that are more rural probably arent as wealthy as states that are heavily populated due to that fact.

I also thought it was interesting to see that some of the states to be starting to have a rebound in unemployment rates, and they have started to have some minimal gains and leveling off in the loss of jobs.
