Does anyone know which states (say top 10) who have had the worst unemployment rates since the year 2000?

Goes back to 1950 for the U.S. and 1990 for each state.

That's the real link.  The other one isn't the right one.

Thanks! It's interesting to see the trends.

Wish there was a fast way to do an average of each state's unemployment rate since 2000!

I'm asking about the year 2000 since that's about when GDP growth stopped correlating with household income growth, if I recall correctly. It would be interesting to see which states have really been "left out" the most since 2000, to try and find out where and why that went wrong, and maybe how to fix it.
