SNAP Benefits Map

Here, you can visualize the household participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) using county level data from the U.S Census Bureau. Each county is shaded based on the number of households receiving SNAP benefits. When hovering over a county, users are able to see the exact number of households enrolled in SNAP for that area. Clicking on a specific county reveals additional stats by showing food access data including the percentage of the county's population living more than 0.5 miles, 1 mile, 10 miles, and 20 miles of a food source, helping users understand how SNAP participation and food accessibility intersect.
