Comrades from Tjen Folket Media writes an article on increased poverty on their website.

A short translated section: Briefly, we see a marked increase in people with low income, with half a million people who are considered poor, students not included. Nearly 1 million people apparently live in households that cannot cope with an unforeseen expense. Almost half of all children of immigrants live in relative poverty. The tendency has been increasing over the past ten years, and no one says the tendency will turn. In connection with this, living conditions issues: unemployment, health problems, mental health, intoxication, low education and so on. And the concentration of all these problems increases especially in the big cities and in some neighbourhoods in these, without forgetting that municipalities in Troms and Finnmark that also express this.
