 Financial Need and Human Services: 22% of households report they are “just managing” financially or “cannot make ends meet,” while 17% say they are “well off.”  ♦ Jewish adults ages 35-49 are most likely to report "just managing" at best -  seniors are most likely to report being "well off." ♦ 2,000 Jewish seniors age 75 and older living alone are much more likely to report health problems than those 75 and older living with someone else. ♦ 30% of respondents sought assistance in the prior year for at least one of five human service needs specified in the survey (jobs, child’s special needs, elder services, housing, or disability).   9% sought two services.
