Those figures are misleading. Oregon, for example, has counties with equal or greater unemployment rates than some of these individual cities. Also many people have just given up looking for work and/or run out of unemployment insurance so the figures appear lower than they really are.
Who knew the west coast would be dominating unemployment rates? Kind of surprising.
