US-PHILADELPHIA-GRAPPLES-WITH-HIGHEST-DEEP-POVERTY-RATE-OF-US-LA
PHILADELPHIA, PA - OCTOBER 23: Helga Wells, a mender of clothes of the homeless, sews a pair of pants at Broad Street Ministry (BSM) during their afternoon lunch for the homeless and those that are in financial distress on October 23, 2014 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. BSM serves thousands of free meals five days per week while also providing the homeless with a mail center, a clothes mending facility, counseling and medical screening. One of the nation's largest and most historic metropolitan areas, Philadelphia has become the poorest big city in America. It also has the highest rate of deep poverty in America - those with incomes below half of the poverty line - of any of the nation's 10 largest cities. While much of downtown Philadelphia is vibrant with exceptional restaurants, museums and nightlife, many areas immediately outside the center are mired in multi-generational deep poverty.
