I really wish people would stop abusing the word "poverty" until it has no meaning. $60k is not poverty in New York City. I know many families who live there, 100% of them make under $60k/family/year.

  Stop. No they don't live in Jersey, otherwise I would have said so. The demographics show is not remotely unusual.
