PUEBLO SELF-SUFFICIENCY STANDARD RELEASE EVENT

What does it really take to make it in Pueblo County?

The income needed to meet the costs of basic needs has increased in all Colorado counties since 2001.  Although Pueblo county's cost of living is lower than the Colorado average, so is the average income people earn in the county. Women, particularly single mothers, experience higher levels of income inadequacy and are more likely to struggle.
