No cities meet the criteria: there are no entries that can be listed as “Poorest Cities in the Marshall Islands.”
Understand that the Marshall Islands does not use a standard “city” system like larger countries. People live on atolls, islands, and wards. National statistics are collected by atoll or ward, not by cities. That makes a straight list of “poorest cities” both inaccurate and impossible.
Recognize that technical and historical reasons also block a city list. The RMI census and major reports (ADB, World Bank, UN) report poverty and income at atoll or household level. Small populations, data privacy rules, and the US Kwajalein military presence further complicate direct comparisons. Near matches include Ebeye (high crowding and low services), some Majuro wards (Delap, Djarrit, Uliga), and remote outer atolls (for example, Ailinglaplap, Jaluit, Wotje) — but these are atoll or ward profiles, not formal cities.
Examine related categories that do exist instead. Look for atoll-level poverty profiles, indicators such as household income, per-capita measures, crowding, and access to services, and vulnerability reports from RMI census, ADB, World Bank, and UN. Explore those reports and maps to compare living conditions across atolls and wards rather than searching for a city-based ranking.
