Districts and Poverty
(Chart 2)
In the Five County
Region, districts have varying
proportions of poor students.

Data Source:

- In the Five County Region, districts have varying proportions of
students who are poor.
- Nevertheless, in 5CR, approximately 1/4 districts have 60-80% of
students who are poor.
- In Los Angeles County, over 1/3 districts have 60-80% of students
who are poor.
- Outside Los Angeles County, only 1/5 districts have 60-80% of
students who are poor.
- Thus, though poor students are evenly distributed across districts
throughout the 5CR overall, poor students are more concentrated in
districts in LACO than OLACO.
In Los Angeles County, most students
attend districts with high poverty.

- In the Five County Region, over 2/5 students attend districts
with 60-80% of students who are poor.
- In Los Angeles County, almost 2/3 students attend districts with
60-80% of poor students.
- Thus, poor students in LACO can only share resources with other
poor students; poverty is concentrated.
- Outside Los Angeles, only 1/5 of students attend districts with
60-80% of poor students.
- Thus, poor students in OLACO are able to share resources with
non-poor students; poverty is dispersed.
