Florida is in Bottom 10 for Underemployment

Seventeen percent of people in Florida who want to work are either unemployed, or working part-time when they prefer to (and, presumably, need to) work full-time. This puts Florida in the bottom 10 states in the country for underemployment. Nevada and California have the highest underemployment rates in the country, with 22.1 percent either unemployed or underemployed in Nevada and 20.3 percent either unemployed or underemployed in California.

The Tampa Bay Business Journal has a story here:
