Who are at high risk of being poor?

Individuals at high risk of being poor often include those with low education levels, single-parent households, and marginalized communities, such as racial and ethnic minorities. Additionally, people with disabilities, the elderly, and those facing unemployment or underemployment are also vulnerable. Economic instability and lack of access to healthcare or affordable housing can further exacerbate their risk of poverty. Addressing these systemic issues is crucial for alleviating poverty.
