This trend is also seen, although not as clearly, in the next-richest group, whereas, in the poorest group of countries, the unemployment rales for the poor and the non-poor are quite similar. The percentage of people without proper access to drinking water is below 2% in the low-poverty countries, hovers around 12% in the countries with somewhat high and somewhat low poverty rates, and stands at 24% in those that have high poverty rates. These differences are not necessarily as stark, however, when the comparison is limited to low-income households.
