Please help me with ielts writing task 1

The table gives data on the poverty percentage among six kinds of household in Australia in the year 1999.

It is noticeable that the levels of poverty were higher for single people than for couples, and people with children were more likely to be poor than those without. Poverty rates were considerably lower among elderly people.

Overall, in 1999, 11% of Australians, or 1,837,000 people, were living in poverty. Aged people were almost the least to be poor, with poverty levels of 6% and 4% for single aged people and aged couples correspondingly.

Just almost a fifth of single people without children were classed as poor, whereas only 7% of couples with no children were living in poverty. The roughly similar pattern can be seen for parents: while 21% of single parents in this category were living below the poverty standard, the figure for parents living with a partner were much lower, at 12%.

Thank you so much!
