This might be the worst thing I've ever seen. I thought I disliked the rich faggot Mount Everest climbing industry. But this is on a whole nother level

Visualization of the relationship between population size and unemployment rate among US places. Noteworthy that the unemployment rate isn't the clearest metric, but it's the best that we have access to at this scale, or at least that I know of.
The relationship between the two appears to be incredibly small. What does exist seems to come from the existence of some less populated areas with significantly higher unemployment. However, even in places with less than 1,000 people, most places still have roughly the same level of unemployment, which seems to cluster around the same spot regardless of population size.
Note: all data is from the 2021 5-year American Community survey from the Census. Places with zero population were removed. After that, there were around 50 places left that lacked unemployment data, and so were removed.

Recalculated the results with JUST the 1-1,000 data, to see how clear the trend is down there.
The relationship at the low levels exclusively appears to be about 20x stronger. The whole of the data has an r^2 of 0.00003, while just the 1-1,000 dataset has an r^2 of 0.0006.
Still very small relationship, though.

There is a bit stronger, though still r^2 <0.01, of a relationship if you limit the data to just places with more than 100K people.
But it goes in the direction contrary to expectations; bigger cities have SLIGHTLY MORE unemployment.
Weird.
(Do note the change in vertical scale)
(NYC is in the data but off the right edge of the chart)

I may gimmick an alternative metric trying to use something like an age-adjusted employment rate to try to look at this from a different angle, but that's a project for another day

What I wonder is what the definition of unemployment is, and whether society's definition really is a meaningful one at all. I suspect it is not

My thought is that it probably captures a portion of what you'd want it to. And that portion has a big overlap with what we are interested in.
So, the unemployment statistic measures the percentage of the labor force that is jobless and actively seeking employment. It represents the number of people who are willing and able to work but cannot find a job and have not given up and stopped looking.
When we talk about this stuff, what we're asking about is mostly "can I find a job there?", right? So, that this excludes folks who choose to live as NEETS or off welfare shouldn't bother us. The portion that is of concern is folks who want to work but are so blackpilled that they stop trying. We'd prefer it to measure those guys, but it doesn't
