The statewide unemployment rate is 7.6%. Comparing the data in Santa Clara, San Mateo and San Francisco between now and 2002, the current condition is better than the dot.com crash. I believe one of the reason is that tech firms are thriving; social netowrking companies are doing good, green energy and bio-tech are still creating job opportunity in the Bay Area.
