Detroit, No. 2 Highest Poverty Rates out of Metrolitan Cities
The Detroit News recently reported that Detroit has the second highest poverty rate of metropoolitan cities. In Detroit, a little over one-third (1/3) of individuals report an income of LESS THAN $19,350, which is the federal poverty line.
In our neighboring city of Flint, 1/3 of individuals report an income of $17,350. This are not good statistics, church!
