This study examined poverty, material hardship, financial capability, and quality of life among residents of a subsidized housing complex for seniors and adults with disabilities in Phoenix, Arizona. Respondents (N-25) completed a 42-item questionnaire in March of 2017. Data analysis revealed reports of incomes as low as 200% of the poverty level, difficulty paying for food, medications, recreation, and transportation. The study found a positive correlation between the presence of a disability and obtaining sufficient food. In addition, the results indicated lowered financial literacy, reduced ability to keep up with monthly expenses, and a positive correlation between lower income and inability to come up with $2000 in the event of an unexpected expense. Respondents reported minimal use of non-mainstream financial services; most had checking accounts, while fewer reported savings accounts. Scores on financial literacy questions were low and respondents indicated interest in a financial literacy course. The study also revealed low perceived quality of life among the majority of respondents and a positive relationship with material hardship and lower quality of life scores. Implications include the need for further research within the population.
