In united states, Children and young adults under twenty-four years of age have the highest poverty rate.
The highest poverty rate mostly came from young single parents that experienced unplanned pregnancy. It is very unlikely for these single parents to pursue high paying jobs while making sure that their children are taken care of at the same time.
