    Interactive Data Tool

    Note: Works best in Chrome and Firefox.

    This interactive map provides data for every Congressional District on the percent of all people living in poverty, based on the 2017 American Community Survey (ACS). You can scroll over a Congressional District on the map to view its poverty rate, along with data for the state and nation as a whole. The margin of error for each estimate is shown in parentheses.

    Here are key ways to use this resource:

    • ★Click on a district to zoom in, and click on that district again to zoom out to national scope.
    • ★Click and drag to move the map, or use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out.
    • ★Explore the interactive, searchable poverty tables by Congressional District:
      • Table 1. Number of People Below Poverty by Congressional District, 2017
      • Table 2. Number of Children Below Poverty by Congressional District, 2017
