Purpose 3: To come up the idea of where the poor people scattered in Hong Kong
We all bet that there must be some people under poverty in every district in Hong Kong. However, there must be a district with most people who are under poverty in Hong Kong. In order to define this, we must find the median monthly household income of every district and see which one is the lowest. This is the most fair, accurate and easy way to find out.
With the reference of the Population And Household Statistics Analysed by District Council District which is published in 2007, Sham Shui Po had the lowest median monthly household income, which is $13700. And the district had the highest median monthly household income is Wan Chai, which is $28000. This shows the large disparity between the poor and the rich in Hong Kong.
Also, we found out some statistics about the low-income people percentage in different districts. The result is the same. The low-income people in Sham Shui Po shares 25.8% in the total population in the district.
We can simply leap to the conclusion that the largest number poor people live in Sham Shui Po.
