Black/African American Receiving Food Stamps Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 562,963,519 people shows a near-perfect positive correlation between the proportion of Blacks/African Americans and percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.909 and weighted average of 17.2%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Blacks/African Americans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.22% in percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps.

It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Blacks/African Americans and percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Blacks/African Americans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps within an area, or if Blacks/African Americans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps due to other factors.
