Answer:Higher income families tend to have more people to support.

Explanation:

Income inequality refers to the differences in income among the populace.

The fact that a family has an high income does not suffice that all the income will be available for his consumption for he may have to give out the less privilege and this will not be captured by the census.

The fact that few move from one to another level of income to another will not disrupt census figure and this hold equally hold for in kind transfer they cannot disrupt census figure and can improve living standard.
