This article will examine information on the problem of becoming suddenly in need and how it affects the middle class in Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas and the rest of the world. I will show how it has been studied by the U.S. Census Bureau and make references to various dissertations, position papers, speeches and local agencies' information on the subject.
Poverty of information on Poverty Spells
I began seeking articles about poverty spells, particularly the first spell. I expected to find a wealth of information, but instead found precious little on the first poverty spell. While very out of date one of the first articles on poverty spells was an NBER Working Paper Series; "Slipping into and Out of Poverty: The Dynamics of Spells"; by Mary Jo Bane and David T. Ellwood; Working Paper #1199; National Bureau of Economic Research; 1050 Massachusetts Avenue; Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138; September, 1983; hereafter referred to as Bane and Ellwood.
