However, the Office of National Statistics does publish claimant counts of people receiving out of work benefits, be that legacy Jobseeker’s Allowance or Universal Credit as a proportion of people over 16. These figures are usually updated once a month and are for Local Authority Districts and Unitary Authority Districts. So below are the figures of Coventry.

Area	Unemployed	Yearly Change
Coventry	5.7%	0.3%
West Midlands	5%	-0.3%
