A. The calculation is based on an annual adjustment (2007) of the most recent census (2000) plus non-census data such as the number of children in neglected or delinquent institutions, children in foster homes, and children in families receiving TANF assistance. The poverty rate is calculated by the United States Education Department (USDE).
