This document presents an analysis of the relationship between poverty, crime, and education in the United States from 2000-2022. Graphs of poverty rates, violent crime rates, and education levels show a correlation between higher education and lower crime rates, but not a clear link between poverty and crime. The conclusion is that while poverty may impact crime factors, lack of education appears to be more relevant to crime rates in the US.
