As with all ethnic groups, the answer will vary by individual. There are certainly select individuals of Native American heritage that are considered rich or wealthy, and several tribes that have supported economic development that results in the tribe overall having significant disposable income.

However, on average, Native American individuals are much more likely than Caucasian individuals to be living at or below the poverty line in the United States. Reservations where large populations of Native Americans live also tend to have high levels of poverty.
