Description: This thematic map presents the labor force participation rate of working-age people in the United States in 2009. The 2009 Labor Force Participation Rate shows the Civilian Population over 16 years of age who are in the Labor Force. This includes all civilians 16 years old and over who were either employed or actively seeking work. The Labor Force Participation Rate is calculated as the number of persons in the labor force as a percentage of the total working-age population. Labor force participation rates that are lower than the U.S. rate of 63 percent may indicate chronically high unemployment among residents who are no longer looking for work or above-average proportions of children or retirees in the resident population. These data are ESRI’s 2009 estimates. The geography depicts states at greater than 25m scale, counties at 1m to 25m scale, Census Tracts at 250k to 1m scale, and Census Block Groups at less than 250k scale. The map has been designed to be displayed with semi-transparency of about 50% for overlay on other base maps, which is reflected in the legend for the map.
