The chart above shows the unemployment rate in each EU and US region as of June 2021 (unless otherwise noted - see caveats below), the change from the previous month, and the rate one year prior.  The Midwestern US and the Northern EU were the only regions to see a rise in the unemployment rate over the previous month.

The chart above shows the unemployment rate in each EU and US state as of June 2021 (unless otherwise noted - see caveats below), the change from the previous month, and the rate one year prior.  Czechia, Nebraska, New Hampshire, South Dakota, and Utah are the only states with a rate below three percent.

The chart above shows the per capita annualized nominal gross domestic product (GDP) in each EU and US region as of the first quarter of 2021 in US dollars, the change from the previous quarter, and the per capita GDP one year prior.  Every single region's economy grew over the past quarter.

The chart above shows the per capita annualized nominal gross domestic product (GDP) in each EU and US state as of the first quarter of 2021 in dollars, the change from the previous quarter, and the GDP one year prior.  Every single US state's per capita GDP grew over the past quarter.

The chart above shows the population density of each urban area with a population of over 500,000 with a population density over 5,500 people per square mile (2,124 people per square kilometer) while the chart below shows all urban areas with a population of over 500,000 with a population density under 5,500 people per square mile.  The urban areas have been normalized so as to avoid any inconsistencies with how cities and their metropolitan areas are defined by their governments.  Each urban area has similar characteristics making this the definitive method with which to compare cities across various countries.  Most large EU cities have a population density over 5,500 people per square mile and populate the above chart while most US cities have a population density under 5,500 people per square mile and thus populate the chart below.
