To determine whether a person is poor, one compares the total income of that person's family with the threshold appropriate for that family. If the total income is less than the threshold, then the person is considered poor, together with every member of his or her family. Institutionalized people, people in military quarters, people living in college dormitories, and unrelated individuals under 15 years old are excluded from the calculation of poverty rates. 2 County ranking is the rank of Fulton County out of 67 counties within the state of Pennsylvania, with 1 being the best.
