Afghan Unemployment Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 148,850,223 people shows a moderate positive correlation between the proportion of Afghans and unemployment in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.496 and weighted average of 5.3%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Afghans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.61% in unemployment.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Afghans and unemployment does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Afghans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of unemployment within an area, or if Afghans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of unemployment due to other factors.
