West Indian Family Poverty Correlation Chart
The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 253,383,747 people shows a mild negative correlation between the proportion of West Indians and poverty level among families in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of -0.324 and weighted average of 11.7%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in West Indians within a typical geography, there is a decrease of 0.26% in poverty level among families.

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