What is the poverty rate for Los Angeles?

Almost two out of five of Los Angeles County's 9.8 million residents do not have enough income to meet their basic needs and many qualify for government anti-poverty programs. An estimated 37.6 percent lived below 200 percent of the federal poverty line, which was $40,000 per year for a family of four in 2006. The cities of Los Angeles and Long Beach fair worse than the County, with 44 percent and 42.8 percent of residents living below 200 percent of the federal poverty line respectively. ? The number of families in extreme poverty declined from 13.4 percent in 2005 to 12.4 percent in 2006. More than one-quarter of a million families in Los Angeles County live below the federal poverty line.These stats presuppose knowledge about the inherent biases in the US FDA's "poverty measure."
