What do we learn about the socioeconomic situation of the people of Maycomb, in chapters two and three?
We learn that Maycomb is an agricultural area and impoverished. Children like Walter Cunningham Jr. do not have lunch to eat and frequently go hungry. Most kids are low on the socioeconomic scale. Scout and Jem would be considered "well off" in Maycomb.
Maycomb is really a poor town, with a lot of injustice and rasicism. Like the above answer, Jem and Scout are really very well off in Maycomb.
