Number of Austinites living in poverty increases in 2009

I was reading an article and it was talking about the Number of Austinites living in poverty increases in 2009.

Residents in Austin lived in poverty in 2009 the increase were mostly from families and young children from the census bureau. The American Community Survey  http://www.census.gov/prod/2010pubs/acsbr09-1.pdf  which was based on a nationwide sampling of U.S. households, the percentage for people in austin last year was 18.4 percent and in 2008, it was up from 17.1 percent.

From the article their were more austinites living in poverty in 2009 said the City of Austin demographer Ryan Robinson. Among families poverty rose from 11.9 percent to 13.5 percent during the same period. The most worst cases were among children from what Analysts says.

The census bureau estimates 27 percent of related children under 18 and 31.5 percent of related children under 5 lived in poverty in 2009. There were 5 and 6 percent increases in 2008.

With the city's fast and growing majority of Hispanics were more likely than blacks, Asians and non-Hispanic Whites to be in poverty, compared to 22.3 percent of African Americans, 8.6 percent of Asians and 11.4 percent of non-Hispanic Whites.

After reading this article about Austinites living in poverty had increased in 2009 I see that the number had increased in 2009 than in 2008. There were more poverty in 2009. Then at the end of the article the data was done by race. I'm thinking the numbers are not accurate, but somewhat close. Thats not including the people that didn't do a census form and didn't report income.

I looked up the Poverty: 2008 and 2009 American Community Survey Briefs and explains the Highlights, How Poverty is Measured, Talks about the Percentage of People in Poverty in the Past 12 Months by State and Puerto Rico: 2009 thats just by state.
