Unemployment status and rate are important indicators of socio-economic status, which in turn affects the vulnerability of the individual or population to climate-related hazards such as heatwaves or flooding. People of lower socio-economic stauts are more likely to be living in areas exposed to urban heat island or flooding, occupy poor-quality housing or have poor health. They are also less likely to equip their dwellings with proporty-level overheating or flood-resilience measures compared to wealthier people and may be affected more by increase in prices of water or energy. Therefore, the unemployment rate should be considered as a factor affecting vulnerability of the population in adaptation planning. |

The tabular data on unemployment rate was downloaded from Eurostat (indicator EC1020I in table "urb_clma"; http://appsso.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/nui/show.do?dataset=urb_clma&lang=en). It was then joined to the Urban Audit 2011-2014 cities' centroids (https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco/geodata/reference-data/administrative-units-statistical-units/urban-audit#ua11-14). |
