Poverty Reports and Information
The U.S. Census Bureau has released state and local data related to income estimates, poverty rates, and health insurance coverage numbers from the American Community Survey. The Social IMPACT Research Center of Heartland Alliance has done the analysis for you, creating user-friendly fact sheets.

The Social IMPACT Research Center of Heartland Alliance has a series of user friendly fact sheets that contain analysis of the latest poverty trends, income dynamics, and health insurance coverage estimates for the year 2008 released today by the Census Bureau. While the economic downturn has greatly accelerated since 2008, making it very likely that the 2008 figures underestimate the true deterioration of incomes and increases in poverty, these fact sheets begin to capture the first effects of the recession on low-income families. Fact sheets are available for the United States, Illinois, other Midwest states, and counties and places throughout Illinois with populations of 65,000 or more.
