It is always the judgement of 'experts' that identifies those who are 'poor,'""Different criteria used for defining poverty in a given nation can show almost no urban poverty or 30 to 50 percent of the urban population in poverty.

The 1970s were a challenging decade for many poor and working-class Black Americans, marked by economic stagnation, high unemployment rates, and the decline of manufacturing jobs, which disproportionately affected Black communities. The era also saw the struggles of urban centers, where economic opportunities dwindled, leading to increased poverty and crime rates. Despite the gains made during the Civil Rights Movement, systemic barriers persisted, making it difficult for many to achieve economic stability. Additionally, the impact of inflation and the oil crisis further exacerbated financial hardships for these communities.
poverty is when someone is poor and wealth is when someone is rich.
Comparative poverty is a measure of poverty, which is also used as a measure of inequality. It refers to looking at poverty in comparison with others. For example, if you live in a country where there is a lot of inequality, where there are very rich people living in proximity to very poor people, it is argued, that the poor in countries like these are more aware of their poverty as they can compare it with the wealth of others living relatively close to them. At the same time, if you are poor in a country where most other people are poor, it is further argued, that you will not be as aware of your poverty as you are comparing yourself to other poor people. Therefore comparative poverty refers to what poor people can compare themselves with and how that affects their own perceptions of their poverty.

Urban agriculture can help in poverty alleviation by giving people living in urban areas more food security as poor people in urban areas can then grown their own food which would mean they can spend less money buying food.
The theme of "London" by William Blake is social and political criticism, highlighting the suffering and oppression of the poor and marginalized in urban society. The poem explores themes of injustice, corruption, and the impact of industrialization on individuals and communities. Blake's powerful imagery and language evoke a sense of despair and helplessness experienced by those living in poverty.
