Only one of the regions — Rostov Oblast — is characterized by average unemployment rate (4–5 %), in others three (Volgograd Oblast, Astrakhan Oblast, Republic of Kalmykia) the rate is high. For last few years the unemployment rate in the Republic of Kalmykia exceeds 7 %, with the highest percentage of young people ageing 20–29 and 30–39.
