South African Single Mother Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 179,638,644 people shows a poor positive correlation between the proportion of South Africans and poverty level among single mothers in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.125 and weighted average of 28.5%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in South Africans within a typical geography, there is an increase of 0.39% in poverty level among single mothers.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of South Africans and poverty level among single mothers does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of South Africans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level among single mothers within an area, or if South Africans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level among single mothers due to other factors.
