The unemployment rate in the state of Florida for December was 5.0 percent, slightly lower than the 5.1 percent unemployment reported in November, according to the state Department of Economic Opportunity. State officials note that the state unemployment rate has been at or below the national unemployment rate for 23 of the last 37 months, though the two figures have been more closely aligned in the last two years than in the early stages of the economic recovery. In December, the national unemployment rate was also 5.0 percent.
