Liquid (cash) asset poverty measures the minimum amount of cash savings (i.e., cash, retirement savings, checking account, etc.) a household would need to get by at the poverty level in the event that an emergency left them without income. How much a household would need in cash savings to avoid falling below this conservative threshold varies by household size.
