About this ranking
Registered unemployment divided by resident population aged 16 to 64 of the same year, times 100. Comparable across municipalities, provinces, regions and Spain.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the municipalities are compared on one definition. 8 municipalities with data in other periods have no value for February 2026 and are left out rather than filled from another source. Equal values share a rank.
