Definition
This indicator reports the percentage of children living in households with incomes at a 50% ratio of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) in the last 12 months, as determined by the U.S. Census Bureau. This indicator captures children living in households with incomes that are below 50% of the FPL.

Notes
The total number of children under 18 years living in households with incomes below 50% of the FPL are summed across all age groups under 18 years. These totals are divided by the total number of children under 18 years to calculate the percentage of children living in households with incomes at each ratio of the FPL. Counts under 6 - excluding zeroes - are suppressed.
