The objective of this paper is to quantitatively understand the impact that regional labor market structure has on the regional divergences in unemployment rates and "non - employment rates". In the past, many researchers have pointed out the rigid structure of regional divergences in unemployment rates in japan. For example, Mizuno (1992) confirmed the extremely high correlation among unemployment rates in 47 prefectures at different times between 1970 and 1980, and concluded that the regional unemployment patterns were stable. These trends can also be observed in recent years. In fact, the correlation coefficient between unemployment rates by prefecture in 1990 and 2000 is 0.9320. The stickiness of regional unemployment rates can still be observed.
