  • Median household income for the nation was $59,000 in 2016, an increase in real terms of 3.2

percent from the 2015 median of $57,200.

  • The official poverty rate in 2016 was 12.7 percent, down 0.8 percentage points from 2015. In

2016, there were 40.6 million people in poverty, 2.5 million fewer than in 2015.

  • The Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) rate in 2016 was 14.0 percent, 0.5 percentage

points lower than the SPM estimate for 2015.

  • The percentage of people without health insurance coverage for the entire calendar year was

8.8 percent, or 28.1 million people. This was a decrease of 0.3 percentage points from 2015.

Erratum Note: The U.S. Census Bureau identified an error in the input of Supplemental Poverty Measure thresholds for renters used in the 2016 Supplemental Poverty Measure data products. The base threshold should have been $26,104 and was erroneously entered as $26,014. This error affected the Supplemental Poverty Measure poverty status for 109 unweighted observations. As a result, the overall Supplemental Poverty Measure poverty rate was understated by 0.06 percentage points—13.91 in published tables compared to 13.97 percent. Corrected tables, research files, and a revised report will be available on our website.

Erratum Note: The U.S. Census Bureau identified an error in the input of Supplemental Poverty Measure thresholds for renters used in the 2016 Supplemental Poverty Measure data products. The base threshold should have been $26,104 and was erroneously entered as $26,014. This error affected the Supplemental Poverty Measure poverty status for 109 unweighted observations. As a result, the overall Supplemental Poverty Measure poverty rate was understated by 0.06 percentage points—13.91 in published tables compared to 13.97 percent. Corrected tables, research files, and a revised report will be available on our website.
