When you compare Long Beach to the 70 largest cities in the United States Long Beach is...
6th nationally in overall poverty (26.4% of all residents)
6th in households paying 30% or more of income on rent and utilities
3rd in children under 18 living in poverty (45.2%)
2nd in persons living in overcrowded or severely-overcrowded conditions (15.1%)
Lord, have mercy! Church, should this be?
