With unemployment running at 11%, the city government essentially bankrupted, and the population actually was falling as young people left in droves, there were few bright spots in Bartovia’s future.

Explanation:

This text is written in the past tense, so we should put all the tenses into the past tense. We use the Past Simple to describe finished actions in the past (bankrupted) and to express finished actions that we have introduced with another tense (in this case, past continuous).

We use Past Continuous to talk about an ongoing past action, interrupted by another action (expressed in the simple past).
