Data for Indicator 1.1.1 comes from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) poverty estimates. The U.S. poverty threshold varies based on year and family size. For example, in 2020, a household with two adults and two children would be considered under the poverty line if the household had an annual income less than $26,246. We define people living in extreme poverty line as people from households which earn less than 50% of the U.S. national poverty level for the specific year.

Data for Indicator 1.2.1 comes from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) poverty estimates. The U.S. poverty threshold varies based on year and family size. For example, in 2020, a household with two adults and two children would be considered under the poverty line if the household had an annual income less than $26,246. We define people living below the national poverty line as people from households which earn less than 100% of the U.S. national poverty level for the specific year.
