Puerto Rican Unemployment

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 526,845,718 people shows a substantial positive correlation between the proportion of Puerto Ricans and unemployment in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.590 and weighted average of 8.4%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Puerto Ricans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.12% in unemployment.

It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Puerto Ricans and unemployment does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Puerto Ricans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of unemployment within an area, or if Puerto Ricans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of unemployment due to other factors.
