Just as there is no vaccine for COVID-19, there is also no magic formula for when and how businesses can open, when people can go back to work, and when the economy can reopen without prolonging or worsening the pandemic. One thing, however, is certain—businesses across America are being crushed under the weight of the crisis. Much of that pain is the result of one thing—a near-complete dropoff in foot traffic to businesses across the country. While essential businesses have remained open, others have been shuttered for weeks on end, with millions of Americans cooped up at home ordering things online to be delivered to their doors instead of shopping in person. The result has been massive unemployment, the likes of which haven’t been seen since the Great Depression. Countless businesses—and in some cases, entire industries—are on life support. While the repercussions for states have varied, each state has experienced a 50% or more reduction in foot traffic. Stacker compiled a list of the states where business foot traffic has fallen the most between the weeks of March 1 and April 12 using data from SafeGraph. SafeGraph gathered the data through an aggregated technology called SafeGraph Places Patterns, which summarizes foot traffic in 6 million North American points of interest. The samples represent a broad balance of both geography and demographics. It samples a panel of opt-in smartphones—anonymized for privacy—and lists foot traffic data by brands like McDonald’s or Costco or by categories such as supermarkets or airports. To contextualize the 2020 data, SafeGraph displays data from both 2019 and 2020 because many categories have seasonal and week-to-week variability represented in both years. Generally speaking, however, the data from 2020 shows significant deviations from the same period in 2019.

The unemployment rate in the United States climbed to 14.7% in April, according to the latest numbers released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Overall, non-farm payroll employment—all jobs that don't include farm employees, unincorporated self-employed, private household employees, proprietors, and unpaid volunteers—dropped by 20.5 million in April. Leisure and hospitality industries, deemed nonessential, represent the hardest-hit sector, as countless businesses from travel agencies to spas shuttered their doors Using the most recent jobs report from the BLS (released May 8, 2020), Stacker broke down updates to employment numbers around the country. The BLS report covers statistics from two monthly surveys: a households survey, which looks at labor force status by demographic; and an establishments survey, which measures non-farm earnings, employment, and hours. All numbers represented, unless otherwise indicated, refer to those for the month of April; changes refer to the difference between March and April 2020 numbers.
