Tuesday, April 23, 2024 9:14PMA new poll has found that 85% of New Yorkers say the cost of food is rising faster than their income, resulting in four out of five households finding it harder to afford groceries over the last year., commissioned by No Kid Hungry New York, was released on Tuesday amid an ongoing affordability crisis.
Just under half of New Yorkers reported a sign of food insecurity due to rising prices like eating less nutritious food or not having enough to eat. That's because while very few people got double-digit raises in the last few years, groceries saw double-digit percentage increases. The poll says parents of schoolchildren and rural households are hurting the most, with 87% saying their incomes aren't keeping up with the cost of food.
