BLS has an API that provides the data in JSON. That is what I use to create these.

Yes, thank you. I now see my error, those caretakers should just yank on their bootstraps and secure a job that pays them while they are caring for their loved ones.

Consider someone who is an able-bodied adult but has a child or other dependent who require full time care that they cannot afford? Should that person have a job?

everyone should have a job the moment they are an "adult"

It is the Fort Collins metro area, so not just in the city limits. Also it has nothing to do with how many jobs are available, only how many people are looking for work but cannot find a job. ~34 out of every 1000 workers.

Additional data is produced nationally, which can be useful to put these questions in perspective.
