Food pantry users throughout New York State were studied and many demographic differences found between New York City and Upstate New York respondents. Seven percent of households had no income and median income as percent of the poverty level was 59 percent. Slightly more than 40 percent were spending over 60 percent of their incomes on housing. The data from this survey, the first in New York State to employ a random sampling design, demonstrate a sizable gap between household needs and available resources.
对纽约州各地食品救济站的使用者进行了研究,发现纽约市和纽约州北部的受访者在许多人口统计学特征上存在差异。7%的家庭没有收入,家庭收入中位数占贫困线的比例为59%。略超过40%的家庭将超过60%的收入用于住房支出。这项调查是纽约州首次采用随机抽样设计的调查,其数据表明家庭需求与可用资源之间存在相当大的差距。
