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.

Use this for municipal comparisons. The survey-based rate (unemployment_rate) is only published down to province.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the municipalities are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
