What the Data Shows
In the second half of 2025, poverty affected 41.3% of children under 14, 32.6% of people aged 15–29 and 9.7% of people aged 65 or older. The child rate was 31.6 percentage points above the senior rate. It was also about 4.3 times as high. The comparison covers three published age groups rather than a complete age partition.
