A look at household income and poverty rates for Wisconsin reservations
|
|
Associated Press This table compares how the median household income and poverty rates changed on Wisconsin's Indian reservations and trust lands between the 1990 census and the 2000 census. The first column shows the median household income in 1990, adjusted for inflation to compare with the 2000 data. The final two columns compare the rates of families living in poverty as calculated by the U.S. Census Bureau. Note, the Mole Lake Sakaogon tribe was too small by Census Bureau standards to calculate its rate for comparison in 1990. | Tribe | 1990 income | 2000 income | 1990 poverty | 2000 poverty | | Bad River | 21,734 | 27,303 | 25.1 | 21.5 | | Ho-Chunk | 20,846 | 31,250 | 23.1 | 18.6 | | Lac Courte Oreilles | 16,397 | 25,764 | 46.8 | 20.5 | | Lac du Flambeau | 17,064 | 29,835 | 55.1 | 12.1 | | Menominee | 19,098 | 26,923 | 45.0 | 32.1 | | Sokaogon | 18,000 | 38.5 | | | | Oneida | 24,784 | 60,404 | 22.6 | 4.0 | | Potawatomi | 15,108 | 62,250 | 46.2 | 5.0 | | RedCliff | 23,408 | 24,412 | 27.7 | 25.4 | | St.CroixChippewa | 16,493 | 31,250 | 37.5 | 23.8 | | Stockbridge-Munsee | 26,328 | 36,908 | 17.6 | 5.1 | | Wisconsin | 38,212 | 43,731 | 10.7 | 8.7 | --- Source: U.S. Census Bureau.
