It roughly correlates to cost of living, but Hawaii and Washington (which have high cost of living) are still pretty low in this measure.
It's just a combination of cost of living and unadjusted poverty rate. Hawaii and Washington have very low unadjusted poverty rates. California has very high cost of living.
