Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The near poor are persons and families whose income is above the federal income guidelines but insufficient to meet living expenses. Persistent poor refers to individuals and families who remain poor for long periods and who pass poverty on to their descendants. Neighborhood poverty re-fers to geographically defined areas of high poverty, characterized by run-down housing, high unemployment rates, and poorer health outcomes. Impoverished refers to those living in poverty.
