The area chart depicts the immigration of Ireland in numbers, whereas the line graph measures the unemployment there in percentages.
Overall, both data have commited a decline; however, it is apparent that the figures mostly followed a complex and different pattern.
According to the information, 60000 Irish left the country in 1988, while 50000 in 2008, resulting in a significant decrease in immigration. Besides that, the percentage of jobless inhabitatants at the start was approximately at 17% and in the end – 6%, following a 11% increase in recruitment rate.
Citizen departure number does not imitate a gradual drop of unemployment, in fact, it experiences sudden fall between 1990 and 1992, after which it flactuates a bit, then declines constantly, and afterwards rises like a rocket from 2004. On the other hand, joblessness data develops less steeper reduction, but it is stretched throughout 8 years, instead of 2 of the previous, thereafter being a relatively stable since 2000.
