Census Shows Ranks of Poor Rose by 1.3 Million

The number of Americans living below the poverty line increased by
more than 1.3 million last year, even though the economy technically
edged out of recession during the same period, a Census Bureau report
shows.
The spike in economic hardship hit individuals and families alike. The
report indicated that the total percentage of people in poverty
increased to 12.4 percent from 12.1 percent in 2001 and totaled 34.8
million. At the same time, the number of families living in poverty
went up by more than 300,000 in 2002 to 7 million from 6.6 million in
2001.
