American Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 580,977,330 people shows a moderate positive correlation between the proportion of Americans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.418 and weighted average of 13.4%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Americans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.20% in poverty level.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Americans and poverty level 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 within an area, or if Americans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
