What this measure is
The share of the labour force, people working or looking for work, who are unemployed. The figures are not seasonally adjusted, because the Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes no adjusted county figures, so the rate moves with the seasons; the 1-year change compares the same month. The latest month is preliminary and is revised.
