Question

Transient poor includes ______.

Options

• Occasionally Poor

• Churning Poor

• Both occasionally poor and churning poor

• Usually Poor

Answer 1

Transient poor includes both occasionally poor and churning poor.

Explanation:

Occasionally poor are those who are mostly well-off but sometimes fall into poverty due to bad luck. Churning poor are people who frequently move in and out of poverty as their income fluctuates, such as small farmers and seasonal workers. Together, these groups form the transient poor, who experience poverty temporarily as opposed to the chronic poor who are always or usually poor.
