Arab Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 486,388,677 people shows a strong positive correlation between the proportion of Arabs and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.710 and weighted average of 12.7%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Arabs within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.63% in poverty level.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Arabs and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Arabs influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Arabs simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
