The reference is the median of the 36 cities published here, not a European average. Eurostat's EU aggregates are not collected yet, and deriving one from these cities would invent a figure no source publishes.

Ordered best first

This measure has stated that a lower value is better for a household choosing where to settle, so the order and the colour follow from it. Cities with the same value share a rank. This orders one measure; it is not a ranking of cities.

Every value is published at the same geographic level: NUTS 2. Period 2025. Confidence varies by city and is stated on each row.

Each bar grows from the median towards the side its value falls on. The two halves are scaled independently, so the lowest and highest values reach their ends even when the spread is uneven: a bar's length is comparable with others on the same side of the median, not across it.

How this measure is built

Definition
Unemployed people aged 15 to 74 as a share of the economically active population of the same age, for the region containing the city.
Position
The median, the gap and the rank are arithmetic over the values in this table and can be recomputed from it. They are not a score, carry no weighting, and combine with nothing else on the site.Read the method
