United for ALICE
The United Way developed the ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) metric to examine the group of households earning more than the Federal Poverty Level, but not enough to afford the essentials for survival in the communities in which they reside. The tool will generate dashboards of socioeconomic data related to the ALICE metric at the State and County levels.
User expertise rating:
Beginner. This interactive dashboard is well laid out and easy to navigate. The linked reports are comprehensive and well documented.
Sample questions:
How many Wisconsin households have an annual income below the ALICE threshold? What is the median hourly wage for waitstaff in Wisconsin? By what percentage have households headed by people age 65 and over increased between 2010 and 2022?
