Food insecurity in the United States can affect various demographic groups for a variety of reasons. Among the options provided, the following are more likely to be associated with food insecurity:
1. **Hispanic families** - Studies have shown that minority populations, including Hispanic families, are often at higher risk for food insecurity.
2. **Households that live well below the poverty threshold** - As income decreases, the likelihood of food insecurity increases significantly, making these households more vulnerable.
3. **Households with children** - Families with children often face higher food insecurity rates, as they may have greater expenses related to feeding and caring for children.
The option about **households with a single male at the head** may not necessarily be a defining factor for food insecurity, as single-parent households generally (regardless of gender) are often more impacted. However, traditionally, single-parent households, which may include single mothers, have shown higher rates of food insecurity.
Thus, the three options that are most clearly linked to higher food insecurity are **Hispanic families**, **households that live well below the poverty threshold**, and **households with children**.
