Unemployed is a person who is constantly looking for a job or work and he/she is also capable of doing work but don’t able to get a job then they are unemployed.

We see that in the US the unemployment rate is not distributed evenly, as they are various differences, we see across different groups of people based on gender, age, race, ethnicity, etc.

If we take the difference on the basis of the gender unemployment rate for women is high as compared to males. The unemployment rate is the same for men and women in the 1980s and during the phase of recession, the unemployment rate for men is higher than for women.

And according to age, the unemployment rate of the young generation is higher than the middle-aged population, this is because the middle-aged generation has stable jobs as compared to the young generation who can easily move in and out of the labor force. The old-age population has very little unemployment rate as they are not willing to work nor they are constantly looking for jobs.

According to race African Americans have high rates of unemployment as they face discrimination of black and whites.
