Story Behind the Curve
United Ways of Iowa conducted the ALICE study that was released in 2016. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. The cost of living is higher than many wages pay and quite a lot higher than the Federal Poverty Level. The study showed that 42% of the population of Story County was either living in poverty or ALICE. For more information, please visit http://www.uwiowa.org/united-way-alice-report-iowa.
