In 2024, **** percent of Black people living in the United States were living below the poverty line, compared to *** percent of white people. That year, the overall poverty rate in the U.S. across all races and ethnicities was **** percent. Poverty in the United States The poverty threshold for a single person in the United States was measured at an annual income of ****** U.S. dollars in 2023. Among families of four, the poverty line increases to ****** U.S. dollars a year. Women and children are more likely to suffer from poverty. This is due to the fact that women are more likely than men to stay at home, to care for children. Furthermore, the gender-based wage gap impacts women's earning potential. Poverty data Despite being one of the wealthiest nations in the world, the United States has some of the highest poverty rates among OECD countries. While, the United States poverty rate has fluctuated since 1990, it has trended downwards since 2014. Similarly, the average median household income in the U.S. has mostly increased over the past decade, except for the covid-19 pandemic period. Among U.S. states, Louisiana had the highest poverty rate, which stood at some ** percent in 2024.

Between 2019 and 2023, people living in households in the Asian and ‘Other’ ethnic groups were most likely to be in persistent low income before and after housing costs

In 2024, about 44.7 percent of White households in the United States had an annual median income of over 100,000 U.S. dollars. By comparison, only 26.8 percent of Black households were in this income group. Asian Americans, on the other hand, had the highest median income per household that year.

In the U.S., the share of the population living in poverty fluctuated significantly throughout the six decades between 1987 and 2023. In 2023, the poverty level across all races and ethnicities was 11.1 percent. Black Americans have been the ethnic group with the highest share of their population living in poverty almost every year since 1974. In 1979 alone, Black poverty was well over double the national average, and over four times the poverty rate in white communities; in 1982, almost 48 percent of the Black population lived in poverty. Although poverty rates have been trending downward across all ethnic groups, 17.8 percent of Black Americans and 18.9 percent of American Indian and Alaskan Natives still lived below the poverty line in 2022.

Graph and download economic data for Unemployment Rate - Black or African American (LNS14000006) from Jan 1972 to Sep 2025 about African-American, 16 years +, household survey, unemployment, rate, and USA.

The COVID-19 pandemic revealed substantial health disparities, disproportionately impacting Black individuals, individuals of lower socioeconomic status, and older adults in the US. Little is known as to whether and how adults discuss these disparities with their children, an essential first step toward determining when and how children come to understand these differences. To address these questions, we recruited parents with at least one child aged 5–12 (N = 443, 61% White) from CloudResearch Prime Panels. We asked participants to report their likelihood of discussing these disparities with their children, how they would explain them, their own beliefs regarding these disparities, and a series of group perception and attitudinal measures. An ordinal mixed-effects regression revealed that parents were significantly more likely to say they would discuss the age disparity than the race and class disparities, with no difference between the latter. Parents of older children reported being more likely to discuss race and age disparities than parents of younger children. Ordinal logistic regressions revealed that parents reported they would discuss the race disparity significantly more when they held stronger racial essentialist beliefs, held stronger racial social constructionist beliefs, and perceived Black people as warmer and less competent. Parents also reported that they would discuss the social class disparity significantly more when they held stronger essentialist beliefs about social class. Qualitative coding revealed that parents’ potential explanations for the disparity and reasons to discuss the disparities (or not) with their children differed by dimension. Finally, parents’ own beliefs about the existence, nature, and causes of these disparities predicted the likelihood that they would discuss them with their children -- though differently for the different dimensions. Overall, our findings suggest that parents’ likelihood of discussing health disparities reflects three key factors: their own beliefs about whether/how such disparities exist, their attitudes toward the affected groups, and their comfort in discussing social issues with their children.

American adults with low or middle income were more likely to use BNPL than adults with higher incomes. This is according to an annual household survey in the United States, that asked about how and why consumers would be using the alternative payment option. ***** percent of respondents who had an income of 100,000 U.S. dollars or more used buy now, pay later. This was noticeably different from all other income levels, where ** percent of respondents said they used BNPL. The source observed major difference between races, with Black and Hispanic users being significantly more common than White or Asian users.

Why This Matters

Poverty threatens the overall well-being of individuals and families, limiting access to stable housing, healthy foods, health care, and educational and employment opportunities, among other basic needs.Poverty is associated with a higher risk of adverse health outcomes, including chronic physical and mental illness, lower life expectancy, developmental delays, and others.

Racist policies and practices have contributed to racial economic inequities. Nationally, Black, Indigenous, and people of color experience poverty at higher rates than white Americans, on average.

The District's Response

Boosting assistance programs that provide temporary cash and health benefits to help low-income residents meet their basic needs, including Medicaid, TANF For District Families, SNAP, etc.

Housing assistance and employment and career training programs to support resident’s housing and employment security. These include the Emergency Rental Assistance Program, Permanent Supportive Housing vouchers, Career MAP, the DC Infrastructure Academy, among other programs and services.

Creation of the DC Commission on Poverty to study poverty issues, evaluate poverty reduction initiatives, and make recommendations to the Mayor and the Council.

The statistic shows the share of U.S. population, by race and Hispanic origin, in 2016 and a projection for 2060. As of 2016, about 17.79 percent of the U.S. population was of Hispanic origin. Race and ethnicity in the U.S. For decades, America was a melting pot of the racial and ethnical diversity of its population. The number of people of different ethnic groups in the United States has been growing steadily over the last decade, as has the population in total. For example, 35.81 million Black or African Americans were counted in the U.S. in 2000, while 43.5 million Black or African Americans were counted in 2017.

The median annual family income in the United States in 2017 earned by Black families was about 50,870 U.S. dollars, while the average family income earned by the Asian population was about 92,784 U.S. dollars. This is more than 15,000 U.S. dollars higher than the U.S. average family income, which was 75,938 U.S. dollars.

The unemployment rate varies by ethnicity as well. In 2018, about 6.5 percent of the Black or African American population in the United States were unemployed. In contrast to that, only three percent of the population with Asian origin was unemployed.

Metric scores are not reported for n-sizes under 10. Per OSSE's policy, secondary suppression is applied to all student groups when a complementary group has an n-size under 10 or is top/bottom suppressed to prevent the calculation of suppressed data.

Why This Matters

Graduating from high school is a critical step in advancing along educational and professional paths. Many careers and almost all colleges require a high school diploma or GED.

Educational attainment is strongly linked with socioeconomic and health outcomes. Americans who graduate high school tend to have higher incomes than those who do not. High school graduates also tend to live longer, healthier, and happier lives.

Black, Hispanic, and Native American students in the U.S. have lower graduation rates, on average, than white students. Segregation and historical disinvestment in communities of color play a significant role in these disparities. Poverty and limited educational resources act as barriers to graduation.

The District Response

The Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE)’s Reimagining High School Graduation Requirements initiative aims to identify and implement new high school graduation requirements that incorporate outcome measures and support innovative approaches to preparing young people for life after graduation.

The District of Columbia Public Schools offers a number of supports to both proactively aid students in graduating and assist those at risk of not graduating.

Since 2014, those who pass the GED receive a State High School Diploma instead of a GED credential. This more accurately represents the dedication, hard work, and demonstration of skill it takes for residents to successfully complete this alternative path to a high school diploma.

THE POLL

As part of Cards Against Humanity Saves America, this poll is funded for one year of monthly public opinion polls. Cards Against Humanity is asking the American people about their social and political views, what they think of the president, and their pee-pee habits.

To conduct their polls in a scientifically rigorous manner, they partnered with Survey Sampling International — a professional research firm — to contact a nationally representative sample of the American public. For the first three polls, they interrupted people’s dinners on both their cell phones and landlines, and a total of about 3,000 adults didn’t hang up immediately. They examined the data for statistically significant correlations which can be found here: [https://thepulseofthenation.com/][1]

This study was in response to Grant Number HHS-2020-ACF-OZA-ZB-1817 from the Office of Family Assistance (OFA) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Study enrollment began on April 1, 2021, and continued through March 1, 2024. The sample size for the study was 1,403. The goal of the descriptive evaluation was to assess the extent to which participation in the program was associated with improved parenting, co-parenting, and financial attitudes and behaviors among program participants. The aim of the AVANCE-Houston FRAMEWorks program was to promote healthy family relationships and economic stability, particularly in areas with a high number of single-family households, high poverty rates, low educational attainment, and high incidences of domestic violence. We believe this report can inform practitioners in the HMRF field and beyond about innovative approaches that help adults from predominately low-income households build the skills necessary to engage in healthy relationships and economic behaviors. Primary research questions for this study are as follows: a) How did parenting attitude outcomes change from program enrollment to program completion? b) How did parenting behavior outcomes change from program enrollment to one year after enrollment? c) How did partner relationship attitude outcomes change from program enrollment to program completion? d) How did partner relationship behavior outcomes change from program enrollment to one year after enrollment? e) How did employment attitude outcomes change from program enrollment to one year after enrollment? f) How did financial readiness behavior outcomes change from program enrollment to one year after enrollment? Secondary research questions for this study are as follows: g) How did participant outcomes above change from program enrollment to program completion or one year after enrollment when delivering the SSHF curriculum with a virtual format compared to an in-person format? h) How did participant outcomes above change from program enrollment to program completion or one year after enrollment when delivering the SSHF curriculum in English-language compared to Spanish-language? Implementation study research questions are as follows: a) To what extent is the SSHF curriculum received by program participants? b) What were the unplanned adaptations to key intervention components? Participants in the study resided in the greater Houston, TX area. At 76%, the majority of AVANCE FRAMEWorks participants received the program virtually. The average age of participants was 40 years, and almost three-fourths reported that they were in a relationship. The average age of their youngest child was just above eight years of age. Most (75%) participants were female. The majority of participants (64%) indicated they were Hispanic, with exactly 50% reporting their race as White and 26% as Black or African American. About 44% of participants reported having full-time employment, and 35% reported being either unemployed or a stay-at-home parent/homemaker at the time of survey completion. Paired t-tests were conducted on continuous constructs using timepoint 1 (nFORM Entrance, OLLE Pre) and timepoint 2 (nFORM Exit, OLLE Post, OLLE Follow-Up) data. For categorical variables—such as yes/no questions about having a checking or savings account or a resume—McNemar’s chi-square tests were used to compare pre- to post-test differences in proportions. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05, and no adjustments for multiple comparisons were made. Tests were reported in terms of p-values. Results were significant and positive for participants’ partner relationships, financial readiness, and employment outlook. We did not find a significant association with the parenting attitudes outcome, measured from baseline to post-program, or parenting behaviors outcome, measured from baseline to one-year post-enrollment. When analyzing virtual and in-person subgroups, we found the same positive results in the group of participants who received the program virtually compared to the overall results. We also found similar results for participants who received the program in person; however, there was not a significant association with employment outlook. We found high rates of program retention, with 95% of participants reaching the required number of curriculum hours on average.

BackgroundA healthy diet, as defined by the US Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA), has been associated with lower morbidity and mortality from major chronic diseases in studies conducted in predominantly non-Hispanic white individuals. It is unknown whether this association can be extrapolated to African-Americans and low-income populations.Methods and FindingsWe examined the associations of adherence to the DGA with total and cause-specific mortality in the Southern Community Cohort Study, a prospective study that recruited 84,735 American adults, aged 40–79 y, from 12 southeastern US states during 2002–2009, mostly through community health centers that serve low-income populations. The present analysis included 50,434 African-Americans, 24,054 white individuals, and 3,084 individuals of other racial/ethnic groups, among whom 42,759 participants had an annual household income less than US$15,000. Usual dietary intakes were assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire at baseline. Adherence to the DGA was measured by the Healthy Eating Index (HEI), 2010 and 2005 editions (HEI-2010 and HEI-2005, respectively). During a mean follow-up of 6.2 y, 6,906 deaths were identified, including 2,244 from cardiovascular disease, 1,794 from cancer, and 2,550 from other diseases. A higher HEI-2010 score was associated with lower risks of disease death, with adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of 0.80 (95% CI, 0.73–0.86) for all-disease mortality, 0.81 (95% CI, 0.70–0.94) for cardiovascular disease mortality, 0.81 (95% CI, 0.69–0.95) for cancer mortality, and 0.77 (95% CI, 0.67–0.88) for other disease mortality, when comparing the highest quintile with the lowest (all p-values for trend < 0.05). Similar inverse associations between HEI-2010 score and mortality were observed regardless of sex, race, and income (all p-values for interaction > 0.50). Several component scores in the HEI-2010, including whole grains, dairy, seafood and plant proteins, and ratio of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids, showed significant inverse associations with total mortality. HEI-2005 score was also associated with lower disease mortality, with a HR of 0.86 (95% CI, 0.79–0.93) when comparing extreme quintiles. Given the observational study design, however, residual confounding cannot be completely ruled out. In addition, future studies are needed to evaluate the generalizability of these findings to African-Americans of other socioeconomic status.ConclusionsOur results showed, to our knowledge for the first time, that adherence to the DGA was associated with lower total and cause-specific mortality in a low-income population, including a large proportion of African-Americans, living in the southeastern US.
