87,000 out of 452,000 population are collecting food stamps? That’s like 20% of every man, woman and child.

But the 20% represent households, with an average household at the poverty level of 3.5 then the number of county households at large becomes ~132,000 which could represent 65% of households?

The numbers on your link don’t add up or I have misread this.
