No the United States of America is not a Least Developed Country (LEDC). The United States is currently classified as a developed country by the United Nations and is considered to have a high Human Development Index (HDI). According to the UN LEDCs are countries with a low Human Development Index indicating that the country faces challenges in terms of poverty health and access to education. The UN has identified the following criteria for a country to be classified as an LEDC:
- A low Human Development Index
- Low income
- High economic vulnerability
- Low levels of human assets
The United States does not meet any of these criteria and is thus classified as a developed country by the UN.
