    Summary

    This study uses a life table approach to analyze poverty in the United States. While women experience more years in poverty, their overall poverty-mortality well-being has not worsened recently.

    Area of Science:

    • Sociology
    • Demography
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • Poverty and mortality are interrelated factors affecting well-being.
    • Gender differentials in poverty and mortality trends are significant.
    • A novel indicator of poverty-mortality well-being is explored.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To apply a life table approach to analyze poverty in the United States.
    • To investigate gender differentials in poverty and mortality.
    • To assess trends in a poverty-mortality well-being indicator.

    Main Methods:

    • Life table methodology applied to poverty analysis.
    • Analysis of gender-specific poverty and mortality data.
    • Calculation and trend analysis of a poverty-mortality well-being indicator.

    Main Results:

    • Females are expected to live more years in poverty than males.
    • Females are also expected to live more years in non-poverty.
    • Despite increased poverty rates for females, the gender differential in poverty-mortality well-being has not deteriorated.

    Conclusions:

    • Life table analysis provides insights into poverty and well-being.
    • Gender disparities in poverty persist, but do not solely stem from longevity.
    • The overall poverty-mortality well-being for women has remained stable relative to men in recent decades.
