African Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 469,617,855 people shows a substantial positive correlation between the proportion of Africans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.542 and weighted average of 15.6%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Africans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.45% in poverty level.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Africans and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Africans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Africans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
