Albany, Georgia

Albany, Georgia has a poverty rate of 33.2%, as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau. The state of Georgia’s poverty rate as a whole is 14.3%. If you compare the numbers, things aren’t looking that great for the city. The area has lost almost 3% of its population since 2010. Clearly, good-paying jobs aren’t here.
