The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 102,864,002 people shows a slight negative correlation between the proportion of Tongans and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of -0.088 and weighted average of 10.8%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Tongans within a typical geography, there is a decrease of 0.071% in poverty level.
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Tongans and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Tongans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Tongans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
