US job rate varies by state

The number of people seeking unemployment benefits in the US has risen as the number of applications increased by 8,000 last week. But the four week average of unemployment applications, a less volatile measure, fell to 365,000, the lowest since March. As Al Jazeera reports, finding a job in the US can depend on where you live. Rob Reynolds reports from Merced, California, on one of the worst places for finding a job in the US, while John Hendren presents a different picture of America from the farming state of Nebraska where the unemployment rate is well below the national average.
