April 2009 Unemployment
One can find the unemployment rates for April (adjusted for the season) over here. I find the first five listed (with the lowest rates) to be most interesting. Here they are:
1 NORTH DAKOTA 4.0
2 NEBRASKA 4.4
3 WYOMING 4.5
4 SOUTH DAKOTA 4.8
5 IOWA 5.1
The rest of our stately neighbors may be found as follows:
8 MONTANA 6.0
30 MINNESOTA 8.1
With the exception of Minnesota (which is arguably the least business-friendly state of all listed above based on tax rates, business regulations, etc) South Dakota and its neighbors are doing pretty well.
