The Institute's policy report "Wrong way, Illinois" details how Illinois' unemployment rate increased more than any other state in 2011. In fact, Illinois was one of only four states to see their unemployment rates rise from January 2011 to December 2011.

With the interactive dashboard below, you can explore the numbers behind the policy report. To use the dashboard, roll over different states to see more information. Clicking on one or more states in one section will highlight those data points in the other sections. The source of the data is the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
