American Family Poverty Correlation Chart

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 576,491,417 people shows a substantial positive correlation between the proportion of Americans and poverty level among families in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.514 and weighted average of 9.8%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Americans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.23% in poverty level among families.
American Family Poverty
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Americans and poverty level among families does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Americans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level among families within an area, or if Americans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level among families due to other factors.
