If you think about California, thoughts of Sacramento, scenic landscapes, and some of the friendliest people you’ll meet anywhere in the state.
However, California, like many states, has some areas that are struggling with low income. These cities have a higher-than-average percentage of people living in poverty, unemployed, or earning less than they should.
Thus we have analyzed these cities & brought to you the list of least developed & poorest cities in California for 2022.
Rank | City | Population | Poverty Rate |
1 | Huron | 7,084 | 41.3% |
2 | Firebaugh | 7,772 | 33.1% |
3 | Orange Cove | 10,120 | 44.9% |
4 | Mendota | 12,173 | 38.5% |
5 | Clearlake | 15,329 | 29.4% |
Unfortunately, Huron ranks as California’s poorest city due to a combination of low salary and a scarcity of jobs.
The city of 7,084 inhabitants has the second lowest median household income and the second highest poverty rate in California.
The cost of living is among the lowest in the state, making things like housing reasonably inexpensive.
Firebaugh is California’s second poorest city. The city has the 6th highest poverty rate and the 8th lowest median household income in the state.
The unemployment rate, on the other hand, is merely the second highest in the entire State.
Orange Cove is the 3rd poorest city in Australia, with the lowest median income. The economy of this city has jumped from 2nd to 3rd place on the list (compared to last year) with a noticeable improvement.
The poverty rate in this city is 45%, making it one of the lowest in the state. However, the city’s low cost of living compensates for its comparatively low salaries.
Mendota is the fourth poorest city in the state of California. The city has the 7th lowest median household income in the state and the 3rd most poverty rate.
However the city undertakes numerous events throughout the year, there is still a wide range of cultural diversity.
