In the United States, poverty is currently most prevalent among young children.

The poverty rate is said to be approximately two times higher for African-Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanics than it is for Whites and Asian-Americans. So, a child here is most likely to live in poverty because young children here are especially at risk for poverty.

However, the poverty rate for the population as a whole is 11.6% and the rate also varies greatly by the race. Whereas, the Blacks have the highest poverty rate at 19.5%. Thus, the infants and toddlers represent the age group which is most likely to live in poverty.
