Unemployment in Almería has gone up again, and stands at a massive 37.53% of the population.
That’s 130.600 people looking for work in the province.
Across Andalucia, unemployment went up 1.34% (that’s 18.800 people lost their jobs) and there are now 1.419.100 andaluzes looking for work. Just 2.611.000 people actually have a job across Andalucia.
All this, despite a national drop of 3.5% in unemployment (195.200 people). Industry up north may be gathering pace, but Andalucia remains mired in political corruption and lacks any sort of industrial infrastructure.
And yet – pollution remains high?
