Many times, people living in poverty have higher rates of poor health care, especially senior citizens. People in poverty sometimes forgo healthcare simply because they cannot afford it. The team at Titlemax put together this map of the US that shows where poverty effects seniors and their healthcare the most. By looking over 2018 data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the team was able to rank the 50 U.S. states by their percentage of residents over 65 who are in poverty. The top 10 states are as follows:

7. Florida: 10.6% 

8. California: 10.5% 

9. North Dakota: 10.3%
