Ghanaian Child Poverty Under the Age of 5 Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 181,691,583 people shows a weak positive correlation between the proportion of Ghanaians and poverty level among children under the age of 5 in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.285 and weighted average of 19.8%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Ghanaians within a typical geography, there is an increase of 1.5% in poverty level among children under the age of 5.

It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Ghanaians and poverty level among children under the age of 5 does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Ghanaians influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level among children under the age of 5 within an area, or if Ghanaians simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level among children under the age of 5 due to other factors.
