<br />Regional Economy
<br />The local economy declined during the COVID-19 pandemic but has shown improvement in recent years
<br />with the broader recovery of the California economy. The unemployment rate for the City of Santa Ana is 3.3%
<br />as of 2022, a reduction from peak unemployment of 9.3% in 2020. Despite the challenges caused by the COVID-
<br />19 pandemic, the City continued to support the governmental activities of the City and has developed a budgeting
<br />plan to enhance the City's general fund reserves over time.
