Here we will determine if a total yearly gross household income of $500, with 3 family members is considered poor or not poor.
A family of 3 is considered poor if the household income is less than $20,160 according to
the Department of Health and Human Services.
Since $500, is less than $20,160, a household of 3 making $500, is considered:
Poor
This family would have to make $19,660 more per year to be considered not poor.
The information above applies to the 48 contiguous states. A family of 3 would have to make less than $25,200 in Alaska or less than $23,190 in Hawaii to be
considered poor.
Is $600, a year in a household
of 3 considered poor?
Here is the status for the next household income we looked at.
