Afghan Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 148,816,997 people shows a poor positive correlation between the proportion of Afghans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.149 and weighted average of 12.0%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Afghans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.37% in poverty level.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Afghans and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Afghans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Afghans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
