Portuguese Receiving Food Stamps

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 448,612,640 people shows a mild positive correlation between the proportion of Portuguese and percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.324 and weighted average of 12.2%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Portuguese within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.19% in percentage of population receiving government assistance and/or food stamps.

It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Portuguese 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 Portuguese 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 Portuguese 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.
