Just heard on the news that madison has an unemployment rate of 3.3% here in early 2009 and that its the best luck city to get a job in the entire united states. This is from the census of population and work force data.

The combination of jobs that are branched off the university and the relative small city size of Madison has made it less affected by the economy according to Fox news this morning....
ANY THOUGHTS?

Hmmm...I would think that just because the unemployment rate is decent, doesn't translate to there being a lot of new jobs/resources. It's still a small city...but the economy confuses me, so what do I know?
