Unemployment Analysis

Unemployment Analysis

1. Context & Objective

This project analyzes and visualizes the unemployment rate across different regions of India during the COVID-19 pandemic to understand the economic impact through interactive charts.

2. Methodology

1. Cleaned the dataset, removing trailing spaces in column headers. 2. Converted Date strings into datetime objects. 3. Segmented data by Region and utilized Plotly for interactive sunburst and bar charts.
In [1]:
import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px

df = pd.read_csv('Unemployment_in_India.csv')
df.columns = df.columns.str.strip()

fig = px.bar(df, x='Region', y='Estimated Unemployment Rate (%)',
             color='Region', title='Unemployment Rate by Region',
             template='plotly_dark')
fig.show()

3. Final Learnings

Visualizations clearly depicted a massive spike in unemployment during the April-May 2020 lockdown. Plotly proved highly effective at rendering interactive data maps for regional comparisons.
