Orlando Ranking For Unemployment

Most of the region's economy relies on tourism, and with the sector currently struggling, people are finding themselves either furloughed or laid off. 

The city saw a massive jump in those unemployed due to COVID-19, with a 732% increase in the region from a year ago. 

The city with the lowest unemployment rate was Lincoln, Nebraska, at 6.29%.
