The relationship between income and mental health is not just found at
the very bottom of the income distribution or for those living below
the federal poverty line. There is a clear income gradient to health
such that every step above the poverty line is associated with an
incremental improvement in health (Lynch et al., 2004; Ecob and Davey
Smith, 1999).
