Data Disclaimer: 

For poverty rate data, tract-based poverty data were extracted from ACS 5-YR Summary file, allocated to blocks by multiplying a tract-to-block allocation factor, and aggregated by the current city and community boundaries. These population below poverty level (below 100% FPL) data are based on current city/community boundaries and are created for general comparison purpose only. Since current city and community boundaries are different than those at 2000 and 2010 census due to annexation and incorporation of boundaries, the numbers should not be compared with those based on old city and community boundaries.
