At what level are people considered to be low-income?

You are considered low income if you make more than the poverty level, but less than 150% of the poverty level. This also depends on where you live, and how many dependents you have.

For a family of four in the United States in 2014, the poverty line is $23,850. If your household income is more than that, but less than $35,775, you are considered low income.
