About 8.0% of families and 12.5% of the population were below the poverty line, including 10.7% of those under age 18 and 19.4% of those age 65 or over.
Inman's former mayor, Carl Shults, is well-known as a defender of personal security. In 2000, shortly before his election as mayor, he shot a teenager who was throwing rocks at his house in the face. Schults was not charged with any wrongdoing and the incident did not noticeably affect his political career. [1]
