Puerto Rican Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 527,698,421 people shows a significant positive correlation between the proportion of Puerto Ricans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.693 and weighted average of 23.7%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Puerto Ricans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.34% in poverty level.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Puerto Ricans and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Puerto Ricans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Puerto Ricans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
