Poverty level is based on purchasing power, cost of living, and so forth, with entire academic disciplines, government agencies, consulting firms, etc., devoted to accurately measuring and analyzing it. And yes, you can live in a place that has a much higher cost of living and therefore be just as subjectively "poor" as someone making much less money than you in a lower cost of living area. 

&gt; And what is poverty? Is it the same level of poverty it has always been or is it a constantly rising bar

Have you ever heard of the word "inflation"?
