Não se costuma usar o equivalente 'poor' e sim “underresourced” and “underprivileged” .
Além desses:
be disadvantaged: "The government is introducing new schemes to help the disadvantaged."
financially embarrassed: "I'm afraid I can't come to the restaurant with you. I'm financially embarrassed at the moment."

They avoid using words like "fat","thin" and "poor" because they often cause embarrassment.
