About 40% of Connecticut adults are struggling financially or "just getting by," a new survey has found.
The survey, from the non-profit DataHaven, found that more people report being worse off financially than they were a year ago than report being better off, amid increases in food and housing insecurity.
For its survey, DataHaven partnered with Siena College to interview 7,458 randomly selected adults across every Connecticut town, with statistical weights to ensure representation across demographic categories. The group says results have a maximum margin of error of 1.5%.
