Jamaican Unemployment Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 367,761,379 people shows a slight positive correlation between the proportion of Jamaicans and unemployment in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.086 and weighted average of 6.3%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Jamaicans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.021% in unemployment.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Jamaicans and unemployment does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Jamaicans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of unemployment within an area, or if Jamaicans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of unemployment due to other factors.
