There is a poverty line to determine who is poor in the U.S. If you spend 1/3 of your income on food then you are considered poor. Race-Ethnicity, education, age, and geography are all factors connecting the poor. Most of the nations poor live in the suburbs, only 3 of 100 people that finish college are poor, and elderly are less likely to be poor. 12% of whites are poor compared to 27% of Native Americans. I took a picture of my bike to show that some people that are living in poverty must ride their bikes because they can't afford a car. Two very different methods of transportation based on wealth.
