According to the guy in this video who asks people for their guess. Only 1 guesses SC which is apparently the correct answer.

Does that surprise you?

Most of the people in SC live in generational poverty...is this actually surprising to anyone?

So what's the excuse of the states who have the most people living on the street in a tent? California, New York, Washington, Massachusetts, Oregon etc etc....is that generational poverty as well or just the result of incompetent state governments that encourage being a degenerate?

etc, the ones with the highest populations, by far.

On the politics comment, not sure what you are saying. Are you saying S Carolina politics hasn't been aimed at or good at bringing up those in generational poverty with the rest of the rich? I'd say yes, almost by design. Are you also saying that some states like Washington and Massachusetts maybe have too liberal a bent that builds a nest to help support the homeless that doesn't necessarily bring those up from that lot in life? Yes probably. But overall, those states have less poverty per perentage of its population than many, including S Carolina.

By design? Which policies would that be? You do realize that when you break it down by demographics the difference between states is almost nil. Black people are 3 times more likely to live in poverty regardless of which political party is in charge. Most southern states have 3-5 times the black population of other states.

It seems that illegal drug use has a fairly even dispersion across the US
https://wallethub.com/edu/drug-use-by-state/35150

Housing costs are usually the main driver of homelessness. Metro areas have higher housing costs (driven by demand and higher income levels). https://www.pewtrusts.org/en/research-and-analysis/articles/2023/08/22/how-housing-costs-drive-levels-of-homelessness

But don't be fooled, 2/3rds of people living in extreme poverty live in rural areas and red states dominate the top 20 states living at or below poverty level. These states are net "takers" of government benefits.

Bible Belt states have generational poverty and require the most federal funding for welfare programs.

That is simply just facts.

Bible Belt states also have the largest concentration of the black population. Which directly correlates to more poverty.

There are some nice ones. It might be a good idea if someone wanted to buy some land and throw one of those on there for awhile until they could possibly build down the road. Those things can be nice though even if that's all they ever have.

I live in Mercer county near Princeton, nj. We have trailer park near here in east Windsor and robbinsville hardly low income areas. NJ is also very liberal. They force all towns to build affordable housing. These units are cheap rentals and purchases well below market, so people move from low income and high crime areas to the richer suburbs. The cost is borne by existing taxpayers, taxes are $11,000 per year for a 1200sf townhome in my town. I have no basement, garage or significant yard. The problems just get exported. A lot of guns come from other states here. Gangs are a big issue here too.

I always called them modular or double or single

My wife and I lived in a mobile home park, for the first year of our marriage. Our daughter was born while we lived there. Some of the nicest, most helpful, and most decent people I've ever met. I had no problem calling them friends and neighbors.
