Abstract: These appendices offer detailed information about the process that we used to develop Oregon Poverty Measure (ORPM) estimates (Rothwell et al., 2020). The ORPM methodology reflects the overall spirit of the federal Supplemental Poverty Measure, while adopting many of the decisions used in recent iterations of selected state-level poverty measures, especially the California Poverty Measure (e.g., Bohn et al., 2017; Mattingly et al., 2019) and the Wisconsin Poverty Measure (e.g.,Isaacs et al., 2010; Marks et al., 2011; Smeeding & Thornton, 2019). Our methodology also reflects the observations and recommendations offered by Renwick (2015). We especially appreciate the sharing of detailed information and insights by other researchers, which greatly facilitated our own development process. Where relevant, we note key differences between our approach and the approach taken by other research teams.
