Galway Unemployment Mixed Bag

Galway’s unemployment numbers ticked up slightly last month, with 7,619 people now on the Live Register — a rise of 25 compared to April. The city itself added 80 new registrants, bringing its total to 4,141, while Gort saw 30 more join the job hunt, pushing its count to 518. But not all areas are feeling the strain — Tuam dipped below 1,000 to 974, Clifden dropped to 373 after 32 people found work, and Loughrea fell by 20 to 712. Ballinasloe stayed steady at 901. While the overall trend is modestly upward, the regional picture is mixed, with some towns showing real progress as people land jobs.
