Here we will determine if a total yearly gross household income of $30,000 with 2 family members is considered poor or not poor.
A family of 2 is considered poor if the household income is less than $16,020 according to
the Department of Health and Human Services.
Since $30,000 is more than $16,020, a household of 2 making $30,000 is considered:
Not Poor
This family would have to make $13,980 less per year to be considered poor.
The information above applies to the 48 contiguous states. A family of 2 would have to make less than $20,020 in Alaska or less than $18,430 in Hawaii to be
considered poor.
Is $30,100 a year in a household
of 2 considered poor?
Here is the status for the next household income we looked at.
