Contained in the pie chart provided is data pertaining to the proportion of poor females, while the bar chart demonstrates the rates of poverty by gender and age in America in 2008. Overall, females who were single with no dependent children made up the largest proportion of total, and the poverty rate of females were higher than that of males.
In regard to the pie chart, one sees a noteworthy gain in single females without dependent children. It is evident that the percentage of poor single females without children accounted considerably 54% of total, but the figure of single females who had children were only 8%. For married females, those who had children made up 12% which was 14% lower than the proportion of those with dependent children.
Turning to the bar chart, the trend in evidence was one of downward. Apparently, the poverty rate of males under 5 years old was just over 20% and then decreased gradually to approximately to 7% when they reached 59 years old. After that, the males' poverty rate had a slight increase to about 9% at the age range of 60-64 before dropping inappreciably to around 6% at the age range of 75 and over. There was a similar trend for females as their poverty rates fell, starting from about 21% at the age of under 5 to nearly 15% when they were 75 and older. It is also worth noting that the lowest poverty rate of females was at the age range from 45 to 54, about 8% only.
