State's 17% poverty rate is nation's 8th highest

It doesn't say much good news about the state as a whole, but it does speak somewhat positive of the Greater Birmingham area. It seems that it is the only area in the state that has a poverty level that at the national average. However, its level of poverty between races is distrubing. Most of the impoverish in the region are either black or hispanic.

How about Huntsville-Decatur?
