• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I'm trying to find some stats on technology/poverty throughout the world. Things like, how many people have clean drinking water, how many people can afford toothbrushes or shoes, how many people have access to modern medical treatment etc.

Google is not being kind to me, I just get search results on vibrating toothbrushes and the world's most expensive shoes. If anyone has 1337 searching skillz please help me!

Thanks.

While it might not be exactly what you're looking for, this is a really cool site that builds maps of the world with relative sizes given to each country for the prevalence of diseases, utilization of resources, etc

Worldmapper: The world as you've never seen it before

So here's a picture for total population:

And here's a picture of water usage:

And here's a picture of HIV prevalence:

Interesting site! Maybe it can help answer some of your questions. There are lots of categories.

Try NationMaster. There is also StateMaster if you are looking for statistics for US states.

Maybe some start might be the CIA factbook, if this is what you're looking for.
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/

Gives you statistics about life expectancy, childbirth, health budgets etc.
