The U.S. Census Bureau calculates poverty based on a family's annual income in 1999 and raises the line defining poverty income for larger families. Click here to view the poverty income levels by family size used in the 2000 U.S. census.
Note: The socio-economic data for Minneapolis neighborhoods may not be absolutely precise because they are totals of small census areas called "block groups". A few of these block groups do not align exactly with neighborhood boundaries. Most discrepancies are very minor except for the Hawthorne-Jordan border. Census block groups aggregated for Jordan in these tables include a four-block area lying within Hawthorne. Therefore, numerical counts for Jordan are slightly higher and counts for Hawthorne are slightly lower than actual populations. Percentages and rates may be slightly higher or lower than the precise neighborhood areas. In general, the socio-economic figures for all areas are not exact because they are calculated for the whole population from the long-form census questionnaires sent to one-sixth of households in April 2000.
