[quote=Anonymous]Despite an economy that is starting to turn around, the number of children living in poverty in Nevada is slightly above the national average, according to an annual analysis of children’s well-being released Wednesday. The Nevada Kids Count report, sponsored by the Baltimore-based Annie E. Casey Foundation, looked at seven indicators of well-being, and the Silver State saw small gains made in almost all of those areas. Poverty was the one exception. In Nevada, 23.4 percent of children lived in poverty in 2012, a 1.2 percentage point increase from 2011. That is higher than the national average, which is 22.6 percent. The number of children in Nevada living in poverty has climbed 8.4 percentage points since 2007, when the Great Recession began.
