During the 2000s, America's suburbs became home to the nation's largest poor population. A number of factors contributed to the growth of poverty in the suburbs, from shifts in the location of affordable housing and jobs to structural and cyclical economic changes. Many suburbs lack the capacity, infrastructure, and resources to address the needs of a growing poor population. Government and philanthropic funding have often been slow to adapt to the rapidly changing geography of poverty.
