Hypothesize

  1. The relationship between criminal activity and the unemployment rate. We can hypothesize that higher unemployment leads to higher crime rates. The judgement is supported by the fact that the cities in the United States with the highest crime rates all have a population below poverty rate higher than the U.S. average of 15.1%. Detroit has the highest reported violent crime rate of 2,072/100,000 people, with 38.1% of their population living below the poverty line

  2. Sudden decrease (more than 3% in two sequence months) -Louisiana sudden drop Because of oil and gas industry -Arizona sudden drop was led by increased government hiring. As the tourist season continues, leisure and hospitality employment climbed by 5,900 new employees. Other sectors gained modestly with professional and business services adding 2,000 positions. Construction, too, was up for the second month in a row, but just adding 100 jobs. Manufacturing added 1,300 jobs and financial activities each gained 1,600 jobs. Close to 200 of those was with the new Springleaf Financial offices opening in Tempe. Job losses came in the natural resource and mining sector, and trade, transportation, and utilities, which dropped 100 and 500 jobs, respectively.

  3. The reason that unemployment and inflation were falling together in the 1990s and later is because underemployment was rising. (of a person) not having enough paid work or not doing work that makes full use of their skills and abilities.

  4. Texas - Highest rate lowest oil price (2009 the lower oil price)

The important notice is that you can not analyze the data with one dimension that is unemployment rate (U-3). So, we cannot have a precise conclusion based on this visualization. Our data interpretation has a lot of deficiency.
