Ghanaian Poverty Correlation Chart

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 190,556,077 people shows a poor negative correlation between the proportion of Ghanaians and poverty level in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of -0.146 and weighted average of 13.9%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Ghanaians within a typical geography, there is a decrease of 0.42% in poverty level.
Ghanaian Poverty
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Ghanaians and poverty level does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Ghanaians influences an upward or downward trend in the level of poverty level within an area, or if Ghanaians simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of poverty level due to other factors.
