CNN /Money came with a national-per-state report on unemployment and foreclosure statistics which I find interesting.

Click on the top left of the US map for per state unemployment and on the right for foreclosure info.
It seems interesting to me that Florida which is on the top of the foreclosure chart, is only in the 5th place when it comes to unemployment.
