in 2014, 17% of people in Texas lived under the poverty line, and the tendency is somehow falling: it's around 15 % now.
It was 15% also around 2000, and then for some years the number of people under the poverty line rose - with a peak of 18.5% in 2011, after which it began falling again.
While poverty is a complex phenomenon, we can imagine that the global financial crisis had a a lof of influence on the poverty line in Texas.

The answer is 17.4 percent of texans lived below the poverty line in 2014.
In 2014 the federal poverty guideline was $11,670 a year for one person and $4,060 a year for each additional person in the family. Over 26 percent of Latinos and 23.8 percent of African Americans in Texas are poor. Poverty remains one of the most intractable problems facing the state.
