Food Desert Locator

The Food Desert Locator provides maps and selected population characteristics of census tracts defined as
food deserts—low-income neighborhoods without easy access to a supermarket or large grocery store. These
characteristics are provided only for census tracts that meet the definition of a food desert.

The Food Environment Atlas provides a wider set of statistics on food choices, health and well-being, and
community characteristics for all communities in the U.S. While the Food Desert Locator provides information at
the census tract level, the smallest geographic level of data in the Food Environment Atlas is the county. The
Food Environment Atlas also has an Advanced Query tool that allows users to identify and map counties sharing
the same degree of multiple indicators.
