Top Ten Poverty Cities

This is fun.  This is another one of those “fun with numbers” things I like to do.  I got this via email, so don’t really know it’s source.  I have verified the list itself ( it’s dated, but accurate ), I have not verified the added content.  If anyone finds an error, just holler.

    You need to check your facts. I checked only Miami and your information is wrong. Checked one – wrong. Probably the other information is wrong as well.
