Studies have consistently shown that there is a strong correlation between low income and lower levels of education with poor health outcomes. People in poverty often lack access to healthy food options, quality healthcare, and safe living environments leading to chronic illnesses and diseases. Similarly, individuals with low levels of education may have limited health literacy, which can result in poorer health outcomes as well. Therefore, as the poverty rate increases and education levels decrease, the likelihood of poor health increases.
