What is poverty?
I Insufficient resources to meet some level of need over aperiod of time.
I Income to needs = income / threshold

Problems with the Official Poverty Measure
1. threshold erosion2. definition of family3. major portions of safety net missing4. geography

A new measure
The Census Bureau introduces the Supplemental Poverty Measure(SPM) in 2009
I Definition of family includes cohabiting and foster children, +I Geographic adjustment for housing costs and tenureI Resources include SNAP, EITC, and consider taxes and other
expenses such as child care, child support, and Medical Out ofPocket Expenses
I Thresholds 3-year moving average of consumer spending,includes geographic adjustment

Challenges for understanding poverty in Oregon
I SPMI Based on Census Current Population Survey, Annual Social and
Economic Supplement (ASEC)I Annual sample size in Oregon ~ n=2,600I Recommended to combine at least 3 years of data to estimate
state level poverty ratesI Major counties not identified (exception: Yamhill, Jackson,
Lane, Linn)I Measurement error in reporting income from social assistance
programs (also problem for OPM, see Meyer & Wu, 2018)

The Oregon Poverty Measure Project
I Basic idea : create an SPM-like measure with ability to informlower level geographic unitsI Based on American Community Survey (ACS) - much larger
sample and geographiesI Change family units and create SPM-like thresholdsI Improve resources measurement and policy analysis
I Imputation from administrative data (DHS, OED, OHCS) andother sources (Archived SPM, CPS, TRIM)
I Examples from Wisconsin and California

The Oregon Poverty Measure Project steps
1. Build ACS 5 year sample2. Change family units to match SPM (college students)
3. Create resource bundlesI adjustments and imputations from admin and other data
sources, e.g., school lunches4. Generate thresholds

Wrap up
I The Oregon Poverty Measure will be a more valid measurethan OPM or SPM and provide more detail
I With a new measure we can have more confidence in rate andbetter explanations
I Study compositional changes; poverty depth and severity;target resources
