So you are wondering what are the poorest cities in America in 2017? Well, there are lots of places where people earn much less money than in other parts of the world. Wealth and income aren’t evenly distributed in the world, unfortunately. We can say ourselves rather lucky as we have a job and accommodation in cities that have a fairly decent annual median salary. While you can get much higher earnings in New York than the other places, the cost of living is relatively higher than anywhere else. When you plan to move somewhere naturally you consider the salary and costs of living in a certain region. It is worth reading articles about topics like this from Insider Monkey.

But what are the poorest countries in America this year? Insider Monkey recently published an article in which we can find the great answers for this question. Most of these cities are quite small ones, often without industry; consequently these cities don’t offer too high earnings for the citizens. Yet the costs of living are low there, too.

In order to get the right answer, Insider Monkey has consulted sites like Biz Journals, AOL, and World Atlas. The cities were found on these sites, were ranked by the annual median income. The lower the income, the higher the city ranks on our list, which is the most sensible way to look at this data.

We have picked three items from their list: Bay City, MI; Pueblo, CO; and El Centro, CA. Bay City, MI The annual median income is $27,198 here. While Bay City doesn’t have a high median salary, it has a rich and colorful culture with amenities and attractions. The next city we mention now is : Pueblo, CO. The annual median income is $27,003. Pueblo is not as big or bright as other cities we know of, but there are museums, festivals, and more others. And at last but not least we mention El Centro, CA. The annual median income is $26,960 in this city. El Centro is the biggest city in Imperial County and its strongest industries are food processing and farming. There are county fairs and rodeos here as well.
