What is the breakdown of expenses for low-income families?

Asked by barooff (1points) May 28th, 2008

I would like to know how household expenditures for low income families break down (20–50k). Specifically, what percentage of income do these families general spend on their water bill, energy bill? What percent of their income do they spend on mortgage/rent payments?
